Sue encourages lifestyle entrepreneurs to set big, audacious goals, drawing inspiration from the likes of Walt Disney and other successful individuals. She questions why society often limits dreams and aspirations, using personal examples of being told to be realistic, and stresses the importance of setting goals that truly excite and motivate, rather than settling for mediocre or safe options.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Setting big, audacious goals is important for achieving success. Think beyond mediocrity and aim for goals that excite and motivate them.
We should question why we have a tendency to limit our own aspirations and encourages listeners to believe in their capabilities.
Role models like Walt Disney, Jeff Bezos, Marilyn Monroe, and Beyonce serve as examples of what is possible when we set ambitious goals. Their success shows that with determination and belief in oneself, anything is achievable.
As an entrepreneur, you have the power to determine your own goals and the level of success you want to achieve. Unlike in corporate settings, where promotions and goals may be limited, as an entrepreneur, you have the freedom to set your own standards and push yourself to achieve greatness.
BEST MOMENTS
"Why is it that we have to limit their dreams? Why do we have such a limiting view of them?"
"But what if from now on we set goals and we mean it just like Walt Disney? Because let's be honest, if he did it, why the hell can't you?"
"I wanted to be on the board. Yeah, that was my level of ambition. But I'd always, you know, tailor it down because I'm a woman and because, you know, it's never going to happen."
"If your goals aren't big enough, let's up level them. We're going to set Walt Disney level goals today, folks."

I’m a successful career mum turned entrepreneur (soon to be author..) and speaker.
I was one of a few corporate women in tech who was successful to reach a level before hitting my head firmly on the glass ceiling. All while I was constantly having to choose between my kids and my career. I was burnt out, overwhelmed and unfulfilled.
I wasn’t living, I was surviving and this outdated corporate career path wasn’t serving anyone.
I took everything I learnt about systems, data and technology and created my first online business empowering leaders through training, webinars and coaching. Before finally accepting my calling to help others escape the outdated 9-5 and create a business that works for their life. Leveraging mindset and technology.
