5 Lessons I’ve Learned Running my Business

Running a business, whether you’re a coach, therapist, health professional, or service based business, can be a rollercoaster.

Over the years, I’ve learned some lessons the hard way. Here are 5 key takeaways that can save you time, energy, and stress:

1️⃣ Say No
Not every project or client is the right fit. Saying no to misaligned work keeps your energy and focus for the things that truly matter.

2️⃣ Find Your People
Business is easier when you have a community or a trusted peer to brainstorm ideas, share wins, or get advice from.

3️⃣ Protect Your Time
Boundaries are essential. Your business should support your lifestyle, not take it over. Schedule “work blocks,” communicate with family, and guard your downtime.

4️⃣ Invest in Your Business, Not Just Your Work
Design, branding, marketing — these aren’t extras. They’re investments that help your business grow. Outsourcing can save you hours and energy.

5️⃣ Build Your Brand From the Inside Out
Your brand isn’t just a logo or a pretty Instagram feed. It’s clarity on:

  • Who you serve

  • How you help

  • What makes you different

A strong, aligned brand attracts your ideal clients, builds trust, and sets the stage for growth.
