The Unshakable Company™ Podcast

Gratitude is a Prerequisite to Growth

When you look at where you are now, what’s your first thought? Many business owners compare themselves to where they want to be and think “I’m behind” or “I have so far to go” or “I should be further along”.

But none of those thoughts feel good or will lead to the kinds of actions you need to get closer to your desired result.

Instead, reflect on why you’re grateful for where you are now and listen in to find out how that will impact your results.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• What causes feelings of frustration, pressure, doubt or fear when you think about your business goals
• The impact that gratitude has on your results
• Two exercises to give you a quick perspective shift

Should You Prioritize Results or Experience?

Have you ever been to a restaurant and had bad service, but good food? What about good service and bad food? Did you ever go back?

In business entrepreneurs often hyper focus on results, and then experience drops. So they switch focus to experience and results drop, and it’s a constant trade off.

The only way to scale your business sustainably, is to elevate results and experience across 3 core areas. It can never be one or the other - it’s always both.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The 3 core areas in your business to elevate both results and experience
• The reasons why you have to elevate both and never one or the other
• What happens if you fail at this balancing act

Building Your Business With the End In Mind

For most of us, we started our business so we can do more of the things we love, both inside and outside of the business. 

I know for me, one of the things I love is having an impact. So, when I heard the middle school needed a cheerleading coach, I jumped at the chance. A chance to help these girls with not only cheer, but mindset and leadership skills.

I knew I’d be able to take on this opportunity because I built my business with the end in mind. I built it in a way that has allowed me to shorten my workday by 2 hours each day so that I can attend daily practice. 

I intentionally built my business with systems and structures in place so that I can step away sometimes. So that I can spend more time with family, take care of myself, enjoy new hobbies, and give back to my community.

But building a business that gives you freedom must be done intentionally, and doesn’t happen when you’re simply going through the motions of business. 

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• Why you need to build your business WHILE working your ideal schedule
• The signs of an entrepreneur going through the motions
• 5 P’s to show up every day like it’s game day

Why You Shouldn’t Rush Success

I’m so excited to be back on the podcast  after a much needed break. I took some time off to spend time with family, train new team members and to get ready for all the exciting things I’m bringing you in this next season of business.

As I slowed down, it became more evident to me how we sometimes rush success and the damage that can do. Sometimes we find ourselves prioritizing speed above everything else - sustainability, team well-being, and scalability.

There will always be times in our business where we’ll need to slow down, whether it’s for personal reasons, intentional or unintentional, or to take time off to accomplish a big goal. But have you ever noticed when you take that time, you still feel like you need to hurry up? Like we need to rush to be successful?

I have an unpopular opinion - If you slow down, it will actually speed up your results.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The 4 signs that you’re rushing success
• How to slow down to speed up results
• How short-term decisions can slow down success
