One of the best perks of being an entrepreneur?

Being able to pack up my laptop, head to Bentonville, and be there for my daughter, son-in-law, and brand-new grandson. đź’™

My office for a couple of weeks? A corner of the nursery.

I absolutely love that I had the flexibility to be there. But working from somewhere different, especially during a fuller-than-usual season, can make your normal habits disappear fast.

And with Q4 here, I know I’m not the only one heading into a busier season.

So here’s the question that Guest Expert, Carrie Holland MD CPT Dr. Carrie Holland challenged us with in our recent Focus Growth Collective session.

How do you keep taking care of yourself when your normal routine no longer fits?

Because the answer probably isn’t trying harder to stick to your “perfect week” routine.

In my newest Substack article, I’m sharing what I learned about creating a plan for the weeks when life is anything but normal.

And tell me: what’s one healthy habit you try to protect when life gets extra busy?

I started a bakery, even though I didn’t like to bake.

I ran it for about 20 years. I bounced an employee's paycheck. I hustled hard and almost burned out. I navigated a recession and built a brand, Cupcake by Design. And eventually, I sold that business for a profit.

What I learned the hard way is simple.

Profit is what gives you freedom, not revenue.

Now I help women who own service-based businesses stop working harder and start keeping more of what they earn.

So I started a Substack called Earn More, Stress Less. Every week, I write about:

1. Business growth, and the profit leaks hiding in your business
2. Mindset, because how you lead shapes every decision you make
3. Health, because a business built to last needs an owner who lasts too

My Start Here article is live, and it tells the whole story.

Your business can be making money and still have a profit problem.

You can have clients.
A full calendar.
Revenue coming in.
And still find yourself wondering:
Where did the money go?

That’s exactly what we’re going to uncover in my free live masterclass:

The Profit Leak: Why These Daily Habits Are Costing Your Small Business Thousands

In 60 minutes, you’ll identify one habit or pattern that may be weakening your profit so you can stop guessing and start making clearer, more profitable decisions.

You’ll leave knowing where profit may be slipping away, why strong revenue isn’t necessarily creating stronger profit, what may be keeping you busy and overwhelmed, and what needs to change first.

I’ve been sitting with this idea for a while.

If I’m telling a business owner that I believe there’s more profit inside her business, I should be willing to bet on that too.

So I’m changing the way I work with business owners.

I’ve spent the last five years helping women look at their businesses differently, finding the opportunities they’re too close to see, making sense of the numbers, and getting clear on which decisions will actually move the business forward.

And when I went back and looked at the results, one thing stood out:
more profit, not just more revenue.

And that distinction matters to me.

Because I don’t want you building a bigger business just for the sake of building a bigger business.

I want you building one that pays you well, gives you choices, and leaves room for the life you’re working so hard to create.

That thinking is behind my new Revenue Sharing Plan.

It’s a different model, and yes, it means I’m taking on more of the risk.

I’m good with that.

Swipe through to see why I’m making the change and who I built this for.

I’m opening a small number of spots through the end of 2026.

How do you plan for a week in your business when nothing goes according to plan?

Not your normal week.

➡️The week when an employee calls out.
➡️A client needs something yesterday.
➡️Your kids need you.
➡️A deadline moves up.
➡️And three things you didn’t plan for land on your plate at once.

Most of us have a plan for how we’ll take care of ourselves when everything is going well.

Then an upside down week happens.

And what usually disappears first?
The workout.
The real meal.
The sleep.
The downtime.

🎯We don’t drop the work. We drop ourselves.

That was one of the conversations we had this week inside the Focused Growth Collective with guest expert Carrie Holland MD CPT Carrie Holland, MD CPT

Her challenge to us was smart:
Stop building your plan around your best week. Build one that can survive your worst week.

Because the goal isn’t to perfectly maintain every habit when life gets messy.

The goal is to know:
What are my non-negotiables?
What can shrink without disappearing completely?
And how do I get back on track without turning one hard week into a hard month?

Every woman on the call walked away with her own personal commitment and a plan for what she’ll do when life inevitably changes the plan.

And now comes the part I think matters most:
We’re going to hold each other accountable to it.

That’s one of the things I love about the Focused Growth Collective.

Yes, we talk about revenue, profit, pricing, sales and strategy.

But we also talk about the habits, decisions and capacity required to actually sustain the business we’re building.

Because knowing what to do is rarely the hardest part.

Doing it consistently and having people around you who notice when you stop is where change starts to happen.

What tends to disappear first for you when your business hits a tough week?
