She also revisits the Power Play Profit Filter from Episode 76 and explains why decision-making tools only work when the deeper business foundation is clear.Listeners will walk away with permission to make hard strategic decisions, even when they feel uncomfortable.Timestamps:(01:50) - (04:10) - Why Shauna Lynn is scaling back one-on-one coaching and why the decision feels hard(04:11) - (08:51) - The common pattern of “Accidental CEOs” building from passion without a clear plan(08:52) - (13:30) - The Power Play Profit Filter and how it helps prioritize the right business decisions(13:31) - (20:12) - Why the Real Women Real Business Mastery Program was built differently(20:13) - (25:01) - The discomfort of shifting business models while practicing what you preach(25:02) - (32:16) - How to make strategic changes that support your vision, values, and real life Resources:Book Your FREE Coaching Assessment Call with Shauna Lynn: https://www.aboutshaunalynn.com/coachmeLearn more about the show: AboutShaunaLynn.com/podcastLearn more about the Real Women Real Business Mastery Program: https://realwomenrealbusiness.comEp 76: The Simple Filter to Clear Your To-Do List Fast and Refocus Your Energy: https://www.aboutshaunalynn.com/rwrb-podcast-episodes/stop-busywork
