If you’ve ever felt like you can’t move forward in your business because you don’t have the perfect plan, you’re not alone. So many business owners get stuck in overthinking, tweaking, and perfecting instead of just taking action, all because they’ve been told there’s a "right way" to do things. But what if obsessing over best practices is slowing you down? What if the key to getting results isn’t doing things the best way, but simply finding a way that actually gets you to do the thing?

In this episode, I’m diving into the trap of best practices and why waiting until you can do something the “right” way often leads to doing nothing at all. This applies to marketing, selling, content creation—literally every part of running a business. I’m sharing how I approach this in my own business, why I never follow every so-called expert recommendation, and how you can simplify the way you show up so that it the way you show up gets you results (without the stress, overwhelm, or wasted time).

You will learn:

  • Why you're struggling with consistency, and how to make showing up easier.
  • The simple question you can ask yourself to create a strategy for your business that you can follow through on.
  • How to stop overthinking and start getting things done (even when it’s messy and imperfect).
  • How to tell if trying to optimize your business systems and strategy is hurting you more than helping you.
  • Why I actively choose not to follow the "best practice" recommendations from experts, and recommend you do the same.

And more!

If you’ve been overcomplicating things, waiting until you can do them “right,” or holding yourself back because you’re afraid of being inefficient—this episode is for you. Tune in now and start seeing results from what you realistically have the time and energy to do.
