I had the hotels booked, flights locked in, the team prepped, and the agenda ready to roll. Everything was in motion for three back-to-back events—and then, I got sick.

In this episode, I’m opening up about a hard leadership moment: the decision to postpone events I had poured months of energy into. It was uncomfortable. It was humbling. And it taught me one of the most powerful lessons I’ve learned in 20 years of business:

The plan is just the roadmap—the vision is the destination.
And when the plan no longer aligns, it’s time to pivot.

This episode is your permission slip to pivot without guilt, pause without shame, and protect your energy without apology.

💡 Things I Cover in This Episode:

The difference between quitting and pivoting with integrity
How to know when it’s time to shift gears
A behind-the-scenes look at the hardest call I had to make as a leader
My 3-question Pivot Framework for navigating change
The mindset that helped me overcome fear of judgment or letting others down
What to say when you need to communicate a pivot to your team or clients
Why pivoting doesn't equal losing momentum—but creating long-term trust

Are you clinging to a plan that no longer feels aligned?
Take a bold step this week: Give yourself permission to pivot.

If you're ready to build a business that gives you the freedom to shift and evolve—without losing traction—I’d love to support you.
