585 - 9 Retreats and 5 Years Later… Here’s What I Really Learned About Building a Business That Feels Good
Update: 2025-11-10
Description
In this week’s pep talk, I am sharing what nine retreats and five years of running the Collective Co-Op have taught me about building a business that’s strategic and joyful. From soulful strategy to simplicity and community, these lessons prove that growth doesn’t have to come at the cost of your schedule—or your sanity.
In today’s episode, I share:
- 02:50 – Why growth doesn’t have to come at the cost of your schedule (and how I learned this the hard way)
- 05:00 – How pairing strategy with soul creates deeper, faster results that actually last
- 07:20 – The power of simplicity—and the question that helps you scale without burnout
- 09:50 – Why community changes everything and how connection fuels longevity
- 12:20 – How to make your business fit your life (not the other way around)
- 14:40 – Why fun is a legitimate business strategy—and the energy shift it creates
- 16:50 – My final reflection after nine retreats and five years: what it really means to build something that lasts
