Redefining Success: Metrics that Matter Aren't Always on the Scoreboard

Hitting 10,000 steps became an obsession—but what about the health benefits that don't "ding" on your Apple Watch? In this episode, we explore why the most meaningful measures of business success often go uncelebrated and how to stop letting external validation define your worth as an entrepreneur.If you're working incredibly hard but don't have the flashy wins to show for it, this episode is for you. We dig into the invisible metrics that actually indicate you're building something sustainable: client impact, authentic connections, consistency, and personal growth that never shows up on a P&L statement.Through personal stories about closing a 9-year gym business and struggling with identity beyond a job title, we challenge the narrow definition of success that social media perpetuates. You'll learn why separating your identity from your business model matters, how to recognize wins that don't come with external validation, and why your "spotters"—the people who really know you—are essential for maintaining perspective.Submit your Hey Coach questions to: [email protected] to my Substack: LeslieBoyce.substack.comWrite a Review, Subscribe and Share!
