Ever look around your business and think, “This is what I wanted… so why do I feel miserable?” You’re not alone. Too many entrepreneurs wake up every day in businesses that look successful on paper but feel like a prison in reality. In this episode, I’m breaking down how to create a values-based business—one that aligns with who you are, attracts the right clients, and gives you back your life.

If you’ve ever felt like success without alignment is failure, this conversation will change how you run your business (and how you feel inside it).

Key Takeaways

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The difference between a reactive business and a values-based business
  • Why values aren’t just pretty words on your About page—they’re decision-making criteria
  • How aligning with your core values can actually increase profitability
  • A simple exercise to uncover your top 3–5 values today
  • How to filter clients, offers, and opportunities through your values
  • Why it’s never too late to realign your business, no matter how far off track you feel
