How do you know if you're successful? How do you know if your business is successful? I had this funny moment the other week when I told my local business community to stop sending me referrals of businesses that are riding the Hot Mess Express.

There were about 30 of us there, and we had a really good chuckle, but since then, I've had people coming up to me saying that they think they're a hot mess when they actually aren't who I was referring to. I had this moment where I was like, “Wow, people's perception of themselves is really off.”

It was interesting because there were a number of seasoned business owners who I see as a benchmark of success, who came up to me after that hot mess express comment, and said that they felt like they were a hot mess.

This episode will provide insight into the timeline of these changes and how they reflect a real-life pivot in a small business.
