What Happened When I Built My Business Around My Life Instead of Waiting for "Someday"
from Busy Rewilding with Smeeny Made Wild | For the creatives and small business owners staying wild in a world that’s trying to tame us · host Chereen from Smeeny Made Wild
Have you been putting your life on hold until *insert checkbox here*? Like when "things slow down", or once you hit that milestone, or when you make however many dollars per month. When you start a business, it's easy to fall into the trap of growing and scaling or hitting another milestone. I fell into it too until grief and a health scare forced me to stop and completely reshape everything I was building and why. In this episode, I'm sharing my story of loss, recalibration, and what happened when I started building my business around actually living. In This Episode: Why so many creative entrepreneurs end up building toward a version of success that doesn't actually let them live My personal story of how grief and a health scare forced me to recalibration and made me more protective of my time and how I was building Why I let go of my chef business and slowly pivoted from an online product-focused business toward experiences, in-person connection, and helping other creatives How I now take 8+ weeks off per year without grinding the rest of the year, maintain a spacious work week, and still run a business that supports me financially Book a free 30 minute Rewilding Session https://calendar.app.google/MwJ1jR2F4qTicfpUA Download the free Rewilding Business Audit below and start asking the questions that matter.
