I’m so glad you decided to join me for this extra special podcast episode! It makes me so happy knowing more CEOs will be able to avoid some of the mistakes I mention in this episode that stunted the growth of my business and led me to burnout. After recognizing patterns that were keeping my business stagnant, I replaced them with new patterns, new routines, and a new understanding of where I should be spending my time as a CEO, exponentially growing my business and creating more freedom in my life by design.In this episode, I’m sharing 5 bad habits that stagnated the growth of my business and led to burnout, as well as how I started to show up in my business differently to create my life and business by design. It’s so much more than just setting boundaries. It’s knowing the unique areas where only you can move the needle in your business, what you can afford to say “yes” to, and just as importantly, knowing what you have to say “no” to for the greater good of it all. Building a life and business by design means you CAN have it all! You just can’t do it all yourself. As James said in a previous episode, the less you do the more you make. It just has to be intentional!If you want to make leaps and start a business, or be a 6, 7, 8, or even a 9-figure entrepreneur, then you need to start thinking and acting like that 9-figure entrepreneur before it becomes your reality. This episode is a great place to start reflecting on your life and business sabotaging patterns, and how you can join me in building your life and business by design!HIGHLIGHTSThe secret to having uncomfortable conversations + how NOT having them is dragging your business down.The real behind-the-scenes on how the pattern of saying "yes" was secretly sabotaging my success + how to decide what you should ACTUALLY spend your time on.How I implemented my life + business rhythm and how that guides me each day and week to gain massive momentum.LINKSDM “FREEDOM” to @iamnatalie to be the first to learn about our brand new Business + Life By Design program!Save your seat at James Wedmore’s totally free Rise of The Digital CEO Training - http://www.bossbabe.com/rise FOLLOWbossbabe: @bossbabe.incNatalie Ellis: @iamnatalieMentioned in this episode:MasterclassGet unlimited access to every class—and 15% off your annual membership when you go to https://masterclass.com/bossbabe.
