I don’t care about leaving money on the table.
I don’t care about “maximising” my revenue” or getting the “most” out of every day.
Here’s what I do care about:
Spend Tuesday mornings at a 10am Pilates class. Stuffing around making labels for my new spice racks just because. Googling cool new hair-dos for my little girl. Sitting on the floor with her at 2pm on a Friday, playing hairdressers.
I care about travel. I care so much about travel. I care about renting a month-long Airbnb in Norway just because. And getting a van, and traveling around the English countryside stopping at every cute pub along the way. I care about driving down the California coast. Showing my kids Hearst Castle. Visiting Old Town Ibiza, and sipping Sangria at 10pm on a hot August evening.
I care about feeling free – really, truly free. Waking up on a Monday and relishing the week ahead. Spending the morning sitting in a cafe, writing for three hours over two half-strength cappuccinos. And never again sitting in an air-conditioned cubicle with no natural sunlight, taking orders from a girl called Samantha and waiting for Friday.
I care about life.
And living it, unconventionally and messily.
And having fun.
And being the poster girl for living free.
And above all?
After building a $2.5m business to the ground in the name of wild alignment, NOT sacrificing all of thatat the altar of some arbitrary revenue goal that won’t even give me more of what I want.
That’s why I have the business I (now) do.
And the values I (now) have.
And it’s why I’m now so passionate about sharing with others my ethos for building a simple, highly profitable one-person + a tiny team style business to the Lifestyle Business Sweet Spot ®
