When life gets loud (and what to do with your business)

Published 7 months ago • 1 min read

*Tired sigh* These last few days have been ... a lot! 🙄

In our family, life is 'life-ing' in a way that feels very real and very unpredictable right now. And as a solo business owner? You know what I mean when I say that the unpredictability is tricky to handle.

So here's what I'm doing (and not doing) to get through ...

✅ I'm showing up for my clients: 1:1 calls, group sessions - these are top of the 'keep doing' list.

👉🏻 Everything else is getting a ruthless renegotiation. Meetings rescheduled, tasks deprioritised, expectations of myself quietly lowered without any drama (or guilt) about it.

I'm picking the two or three things that matter and doing those. That's it.

This is my Intentional Methodology in its most unpolished form: sometimes one circle gets bigger ... LIFE expands, and work shrinks around it. That's not failure - it's the whole point of designing a business that truly supports the reality of life.

If your week is also a bit much right now - you're not behind, and you definitely should prioritise your life circle if/when you need to. Sending strength and ALL the good vibes ...

Chat soon!

PS
OK, slightly different gear. I've been sitting with something this week and need to say it out loud. I'm not happy with how I've described AI, Actually™ on the sales page.

Because it's genuinely brilliant (and I say that knowing how braggy that sounds 😆) and I want more people to have it.

Yesterday The Lucy Filter helped me start a re-write these and I think the following lines are a better best description of what it actually does ...

"Most people are using AI like a stranger they just met at a networking event and immediately handed their laptop to."

And: "You didn't come here because you want to learn about AI. You came here because you want more time, better content, and a business that feels less like a constant uphill struggle."

Do those land for you? Hit reply and tell me. Genuinely ... I'm slightly emotionally vulnerable this week and I would love to hear from you. 🙈

👉🏻 Check out AI, Actually™ here (still the OLD page until updating it reaches the top of my ruthlessly reprioritised to-do list!!)

Hi Reader, Isn’t it just SO frustrating when people scroll straight past your content? You spend flipping ages putting it together, and you still feel invisible. You’re left wondering if that was a complete waste of time. And of course ... if nobody sees it, nobody’s buying it. I know (trust me I really do!) how much time you’ve already spent on umpteen ideal client exercises (yep, I hate those things too), working out your message and your content pillars, yada, yada, yada. But something...

Hi Reader, Quick question: if someone’s new to your world and curious about you, where do they go? I don't mean your about page, or a call with you. I mean somewhere they can binge a few things on their own and decide you’re their person without you in the room. The idea: a bingeable box set of YOU Think Netflix, but it’s your content. Someone finds one post or episode, enjoys it, and ends up working through the whole series before you’ve said a word to them. I'm not just making this up ......

We're nearly a third of the way through 2026. 😲 Which feels simultaneously impossible and completely believable. I don't usually do the "here's what I've achieved" email because it can tip into braggy look-at-me territory pretty fast. But I've been reflecting on the year so far and there are a few things worth sharing if only because writing it down makes it feel real. So. Four months in. Here's (some of) what's actually happened. ✨ My email list has grown by over 50% since January. And the...
