Podcasts about way overcoming obstacles

As a business owner, how do you know when you've gotten in the way of your growth? And who do you turn to for help?  Family, friends with entrepreneurial experience, google, other business owners?  Small business owners are strapped for time and energy. Running a business with a small but mighty team is a daunting task. And we often work much longer hours than we'd like to keep up with our to-do lists.  Business growth can seem like a choice between giving up even more of our lives or, at best, staying stuck where we are. How do you stop yourself from blocking your business growth?In this episode:Four ways we block our progress and how to stopWhy making big, scary commitments can be a turning pointWho to turn to for helpThis episode at a glance:[05:32] I was unwilling to receive the help I needed. It was all about being the lone wolf. I thought I had to know everything. I felt I had to know everything. I thought I had to know everything. I was afraid to be vulnerable. And let people know I didn't know things. [08:50] It would be a game changer for my business to work with a group of people that thought like that worked like that, were committed at that level. [09:37] It's another thing to put your money where your mouth is and commit to taking action in your business and follow through every single day. [12:20] I doubled my business within six months of that meeting. And I couldn't have done it if it wasn't for the confidence from committing to that meeting and the plan that grew out of Lisa's expertise.  [13:28]  Despite the constant struggle to keep their businesses afloat. Many small business owners are reluctant to work with a business consultant. Getting help means that you will have to change. You will have to let go of ways of doing things and seeing yourself.Resources and Links:Lisa SasevichFree Range ThinkingDawn AndrewsSchedule a Call With Free Range ThinkingYou might also like:Annual Business Goals Work BookWhy Female Leaders Supporting each other is the FutureFive things I'm Doing Differently In My Business This YearMore about the “My Good Woman” podcastMy Good Woman is a podcast for bold female leaders hosted by me, Dawn Andrews!
