86. What Are You Waiting For? How to Break Through Overwhelm and Actually Move Your Design Business Forward
Manage episode 521317869 series 3488502
In today’s episode, I’m getting real with you — lovingly calling you out and calling you up. If you’ve been stuck in planning mode, waiting for the “right time,” or drowning in overwhelm while nothing truly moves your business forward, this is your wake-up call. I’m sharing the mindset shifts, micro-actions, and systems my clients use to stop overthinking, start taking action, and create a design business that actually supports their life.
IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:
- Why overwhelm isn’t a capability issue — it’s a direction issue
- The real reason designers get paralyzed by analysis
- How to identify the #1 bottleneck slowing every project down
- Why confidence is a byproduct of action (and won’t show up first)
- The power of taking one 20-minute step today, not someday
- What “micro-CEO time” looks like and why it changes everything
- How to balance running your current business while building the one you actually want
- Why hiring for what drains you is more effective than hiring for what feels “expected”
- How improving one strategic area can ripple across your entire business
If you feel stuck or overwhelmed, I want you to hear this: you don’t need a perfect plan, a free week, or a burst of confidence to create real change. You need one clear decision and one 20-minute action. That’s it. DM me and tell me the one thing you’re committing to after listening — I respond to every message, and I’m here to support you as you step out of analysis mode and into the version of your business you actually want to lead.
