What does it really take to go from launching your business to being fully booked in just six months? In today's episode, I'm joined by Lydia Hawkridge, a fractional COO who did exactly what so many of us dream about - she launched in January and was fully booked by June. But here's what makes this conversation different: Lydia shares the reality behind those headlines, including making £0 in January and the year of terror in the run up to launching her business.

You'll discover why Lydia said yes to meeting absolutely everyone - and how this time consuming strategy built the network that helped transformed her business. Plus, we discuss the weekly meeting she has with herself that prevents everything falling apart when she's running a business around school runs and client deadlines.
