Reflecting on a Year of Business Growth: Lessons Learned and Milestones Achieved

A Year of Growth and Reflection

As I look back on 2017, I’m reminded of the importance of perseverance and self-reflection in building a successful business. It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of entrepreneurship, but taking the time to evaluate your progress and make adjustments is crucial to achieving long-term success.

Finding Our Stride

After years of hard work, we finally hit our stride in 2017. We refined our business model, and our focus shifted to perfecting what we do best. It’s a great feeling to know that our efforts have paid off, and we’re making a real impact on people’s lives.

Consistency is Key

One of the most significant lessons we learned in 2017 was the importance of consistency. By sticking to what works and avoiding the temptation to constantly change things up, we were able to reduce stress and get into a groove. This allowed us to focus on refining our processes and providing even more value to our customers.

Milestones and Achievements

2017 was a year of milestones and achievements. We launched the Freedom Workshop, a free video series that helped thousands of women start their businesses. We also relaunched our podcast, celebrated our seven-year anniversary, and hit significant membership milestones in our Love Your Career Formula and Corporate Rescue Plan programs.

Taking Breaks and Recharging

We learned that taking breaks and recharging is essential to maintaining creativity and productivity. Whether it was a month-long break in Coronado or a trip to New Zealand, we made sure to prioritize rest and relaxation. This allowed us to come back to our work refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to tackle new challenges.

Lessons Learned

One of the most important lessons we learned in 2017 was the value of delegating tasks and asking for help. By hiring a meal prep service, a housekeeper, and a personal assistant, we were able to free up time and energy to focus on high-leverage activities. We also learned the importance of taking care of our brand’s visual identity and planning our social media content in advance.

Giving Back

We’re proud to have made a positive impact on our community through initiatives like our Business Class to Build a Classroom in Kenya, which raised over $4,000 for a new school. It’s a reminder that our work can have a ripple effect and make a real difference in the world.

Looking Ahead

As we head into 2018, we’re excited to build on the momentum we’ve created. We’re committed to continuing to provide value to our customers, refining our processes, and making a positive impact on our community. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing what the future holds!
