Episode Details

Did you know that only 50% of small businesses make it to year five? That statistic fires me up! In this solo episode, I’m diving into the real reason so many entrepreneurs struggle—ignoring their numbers. I’ll take you behind the scenes of my own business journey, including a humbling moment when my payroll checks bounced (yes, it happened!). But more importantly, I’ll show you why understanding your numbers isn’t just about finances—it’s about confidence, growth, and finally paying yourself what you deserve.

If you're a creative entrepreneur who avoids looking at financials, this episode is for you. I break down the key metrics every business owner should track, how to use numbers to make smart decisions, and why your numbers are just data—not a reflection of your worth. By the end of this episode, you’ll be inspired to take control of your business finances and start making more profitable choices.
