Today let’s explore this crucial question together: Is your vision for your business truly inspiring you?

Because as business owners, we get to set goals, tick boxes, and make things happen—but have you taken a step back to check whether your vision still lights you up?

We’ll focus upon how to make any changes needed to make your vision magical; explore why your vision is the foundation for your goals & how to keep it fresh & aligned with who you are now.

Some of the top tips & highlights are:

• Why your vision is more than just a set of goals—it’s your guiding compass.
• How to know if your vision is truly inspiring (goosebumps are a clue!).
• The power of updating your vision as you grow and evolve.
• Why being “in action” helps you refine your vision more than endless planning.
• Lessons I’ve learned about vision from my own career journey, from corporate life to entrepreneurship.
• How to avoid building a vision based on someone else’s expectations.

Remember, your vision really underpins what you move forward to do in the next chapter of your business – so make sure it’s what keeps you focused, excited & motivated.

And if it’s not giving you that spark, it’s time to update it now!

We all know resilience is essential for every business owner, but I was honestly left incredibly moved, humbled & inspired after this raw & real conversation with Adelle Martin.

Adelle took us through her powerful journey from rising up as an incredible leader in the corporate world to feeling it all start to crumble as she experienced early-onset menopause in her 40s. This turning point led her to take a brave new career path, leaving the corporate world to start her own business as an executive coach & advocate for women navigating menopause.

Then, life threw Adelle a new challenge. Following a life-altering & incurable cancer diagnosis, she did what so few could do. Instead of letting it stop her, Adelle used it to fuel her mission & purpose. She’s channeling her experience & Entrepreneurial Superpower® to create Stronger Together Through Cancer—a social enterprise supporting small business owners facing cancer, ensuring they have the resources to sustain their businesses during tough times.

I promise that after listening to this conversation, you’ll have a whole new appreciation for knowing your ‘why’ & building a legacy.

Key Topics & Takeaways:

• Building Resilience & Leaving a Legacy: Adelle’s mission highlights the strength of resilience, guiding business owners to make informed & empowered decisions rather than choices driven by fear.

• Leveraging Her Wealth Dynamics Profile: As a “Lord” profile, Adelle draws on her strengths in analytics & structure to create impactful initiatives. Knowing her Entrepreneurial Superpower® has helped her lead & adapt through each new challenge in both corporate & business ownership.

• The Power of Community & Support in Business: Adelle’s story underscores the importance of community and accessible resources for business owners, especially when personal health intersects with professional responsibilities.

“What if you didn’t care so much?”

Specifically, what if you stopped worrying about what your peers or others in your industry think & focused more of your time & energy on what truly matters—your clients, your business, and your unique journey?

Let’s explore the power of letting go of external pressures & how freeing yourself from unnecessary comparisons can help you to experience even more growth.

Inspired by the quote, “I’m not afraid to be seen trying,” can help us to embrace the courage to stay in your own lane, trust your Entrepreneurial Superpower®, and focus on your vision, goals, and values.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand what “not caring” truly means—it’s not about indifference, but about shedding unnecessary comparisons.

• As an expert, only you truly know your vision and goals, so staying in your lane is key to success.

• Embrace the courage to be seen ‘trying’—let go of fear & judgment from others in your industry.

• Your peers are not your benchmark; your own progress & the impact you have on your clients matter most.

• Focusing on your clients’ needs is the core of your business, while letting go of external validation fuels creativity and growth.

• Innovation often comes when you ignore what’s “expected” & instead focus on what feels right for your unique path.

• Celebrate your wins, big or small, without comparing them to others in the industry.

If you’ve ever struggled with worrying about what others think, this episode will guide you to shift your focus, tap into your own entrepreneurial strengths, & create without the weight of external pressures.

Here are three reflection questions that will help you even more:

·     Who are you really doing this for?

·     Are you proud of what you’re building?

·     What could you achieve if you didn’t care what others thought?
