The Exact Mindset Shift That Got Me 6 Figures In 3 Days A Week | Ep 064
In this powerful episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the exact mindset shift that transformed my business from a gilded cage into the spacious success I'd always dreamed of. If you're working 60+ hour weeks but telling yourself you're "part-time," this episode is your wake-up call.
A few years ago I believed I was working “part‑time” in my business - four days a week, nine to three. But when I really tracked my time I realised I was actually working 60‑80 hours a week - evenings, weekends, on my phone, in my head. The moment I snapped at my daughter to say “I’m busy” made me wake up: I’d built a business for freedom and I’d lost it.
In this episode I’ll walk you through:
How I tracked every minute of my time (including sofa, mobile, wine‑in‑hand “just checking one thing”)
The framework I use: 10‑pound tasks vs 100‑pound vs 1000‑pound tasks
How I outsourced, automated and built systems so I freed myself AND still grew profit
The mindset of switching from consultant to CEO: valuing your time, setting boundaries, protecting your diary
My slow, six‑month rollout so the change stuck and didn’t back‑fire
If you’re working too many hours, feeling like the business owns you, or you’ve lost sight of the “why” behind your business - this episode is for you.
