The CEO Collective

05/29/2026

There is a note in my calendar right now, sitting on this last week of school, and it is in all caps. DO NOT PLAN ANYTHING EXTRA. I wrote it years ago, to myself, for exactly this week.

Because I know what the last week of school is. The concerts and the awards and the early dismissals and the three things that get sprung on me with one day’s notice.

None of it fits in a normal week, and for the first couple years my kids were in school, I used to try to make it fit anyway, on top of a full business week.

So now past me warns future me. The note shows up, I keep the week open on purpose, and I stop pretending I have capacity I do not have. That one habit has saved me more stress than almost anything else I do in my business.

Here is the thing I want you to hear. When you drop a ball during a week like this, you did not fail. You were carrying more than any one person can hold. That is not a willpower problem, it is a capacity problem, and you can plan for it.

I have always been a systems person, and when chronic illness made it non-negotiable, I leaned all the way in. I call the practice notes to future me, and I walk through the whole thing in this week’s episode, including the monthly reset I run on the first Monday of every month.

Go listen, then write one note to future you before you close the app.

What’s the thing you keep telling yourself you’ll do when you have time?

The website refresh. The new sales page. The onboarding system. The price increase. The offer rework.

I had a conversation with my client Angela Foster this week that completely reframed how I think about this.

Angela is a style coach for high-achieving women, and the thing her highest-performing clients have in common isn’t taste. It isn’t budget. It isn’t even time.

It’s that they don’t go shopping when an opportunity shows up.

They reach into a closet that’s already ready.

That’s the difference between getting ready and staying ready. And it’s the same reason some businesses can say yes to a last-minute speaking invitation, a media opportunity, a dream client, a partnership pitch, while others quietly turn them down with reasons that sound very practical at the time.

Today’s new episode of Promote Yourself to CEO is a conversation about visibility, opportunity, and the systems most women don’t realize they’re missing until they really need them.

I made something new for you!

Too many small businesses are crossing their fingers, hoping that they will generate enough revenue each month.

Hope is not a strategy!

The Get Paid Calculator is designed to give you the revenue clarity you need to make smarter, more strategic decisions.

A lot of people right now are wondering if it’s okay to keep showing up for their business. Like, does it mean I don’t care?

Here’s what I actually think is happening. We are in the death throes of a patriarchal, hyper-capitalist system that was never built for most of us. And it is loud because it is crumbling.

Something is being built on the other side. The question is who’s building it.

I want it to be us. So yes, keep going. Not because you’re ignoring what’s happening, but because you understand exactly what’s happening and you’ve decided to be part of what comes next.

If your business only works when you’re at 100%… it doesn’t work.

Life will interrupt you.

If you’re ready for a business that’s stable now and scalable long term, it’s time to build your Client Growth Engine.

You should be able to predict next month’s revenue within 10%.

Not because you’re psychic.

Because you have visibility.

For a long time, I hesitated to say that out loud.

It felt bold.

Then I interviewed my client Gabi Day — founder of — and she said it even more directly:

“If you can’t reliably predict revenue within 10–20%, you don’t have the systems in place yet.”

She’s right.

When she stopped running on vibes and installed her Client Growth Engine, everything changed:

• She could forecast revenue.
• She could see dips before they hit her bank account.
• She knew exactly where to focus instead of throwing spaghetti at the wall.
• She stopped making decisions from panic.

That’s what visibility does.

And here’s the part most people miss:

If you don’t consistently get 10 referrals…
If your consult calendar fluctuates…
If launches feel unpredictable…

That’s not a motivation problem.

It’s a tracking problem.

When you can see each stage — Attract, Engage, Nurture, Invite, Delight — you know what lever to pull next.

And that’s when revenue stops feeling like weather.

Client Growth Engine™ is where we build that visibility into your business.

Visible.
Measurable.
Predictable.

If you’re ready to stop guessing and start steering, you can get instant access for $297.
