Ever wonder why you’re doing all the right things in business—posting consistently, networking, pushing for growth—yet something still feels off? The problem isn’t always your strategy. Often, it’s that you’re working against the season you’re actually in.

In this third episode of the Foundations Series of Built to Flow, Heather Crabtree walks you through how to recognize your current business season so you can stop fighting yourself and start leading with clarity. You’ll learn how to assess your energy, check your capacity, notice the transition signals that hint a shift is coming, and ask the right questions to clarify where you are.

Heather breaks down the four business seasons—Expansion, Integration, Contraction, and Recalibration—and shows you how to spot which one you’re in. Because when you know your season, you stop forcing strategies that don’t fit—and start making decisions that align with your energy, your capacity, and your vision.
