The more you know about yourself (good, bad and ugly) the more your business will thrive!

By recognizing our weakness, we can have the grace to let things go or delegate to someone who does it better. And not try to be someone who we are not.

We can just be ourselves.

And in that we will be joyful, maximize our strengths and build a business we LOVE and can

You might think you have to do more if you want to make a bigger impact…

More work. More clients. More training. More everything.

But I promise you, less is more. 

And I don’t say this only because more is exhausting. But most of the time trying to do more is also muddying up your message and minimizing your impact. 

In this episode of 4 Day Weekends, we talk about why that is and I offer you a better path forward.

What comes to mind when you think of a CEO? I bet you think of someone who’s powerful and strategic (probably in a fancy suit?). Most people don’t think about someone who’s spending their time answering customer emails or monthly bookkeeping. 

Your business might be small compared to the big corporations of the world. You might wear a lot of hats. (We all do in the beginning!) But you can’t get so lost in the day-to-day tasks that you never have time and space to look at the big picture.

There are a lot of different reasons people strive to take more time off, but more time to spend with family is certainly one of the biggest motivators.

Today’s guest Jenny Belanger is a great example of how to build a business to complement life at home. She started her design business working when her small children napped during the day. Now, she has a thriving business, works when she wants to, and never has to sacrifice that precious time with her kids.

We’ve all been there. When literally every second of your day is scheduled with something, it feels like you can barely breathe, much less take a step back to assess things so you can decide how to reallocate your time and energy. 

Sound familiar? This episode is for you!

I’m sharing the first tiny steps you need to take to just give yourself breathing room--so you can create a strategy to give yourself back some time.

For example:

Are you skeptical that you can still be effective and enjoy 4-day weekends? Maybe you have a business that requires you to be there physically, in real-time serving clients in order to make money. 

I understand your skepticism. And I agree that it is easier to find more free time when you own a business with more flexibility. 

No, you can’t give a massage or style someone’s hair without being there and using your hands.

But with a little imagination and creativity, I believe there’s still a way to take more tim...

Do you have what it takes?

People ask me a lot if there is a type of person, or a particular set of character traits, that can most easily set themselves up to enjoy regular 4-day weekends?

I believe that anyone can make the shifts necessary to have more free time and live their lives to the fullest. 

But there are a few things that will help you in the process. 

If you’ve been wondering if you could pull it off, be sure to listen to today’s episode.

...

If you find the idea of regular 4-day weekends enticing,  you’d probably like to get started soon—like yesterday.

I get that.

When you’re working long hours, the sooner you can get some relief the better!

So how long does it actually take to get from booked out and burnt out to having those coveted long weekends? That’s what today’s episode is all about.
