Description

In this episode of The Aligned Florist, we’re talking about something that doesn’t always get the spotlight—but quietly runs the show behind the scenes: your systems.

If you’ve ever found yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, or rewriting the same proposal at 10pm for the third time… this one’s for you. I’m sharing a real-life moment from my own business that forced me to face the truth: the systems that got me here couldn’t take me where I was going.

We’ll walk through:

  • How to know when your systems are no longer serving you
  • The subtle signs of friction that point to deeper gaps
  • Why feeling constantly behind isn’t just a time problem—it’s a structure problem
  • What supportive systems actually look and feel like

This is your invitation to stop white-knuckling your workflow and start building a business that holds you—not the other way around.
