There comes a point in every woman entrepreneur’s journey where the spreadsheets add up, the clients are happy, and the revenue looks good… And yet, something feels off.

You’ve followed the strategies. You’ve implemented the systems. You’ve done the inner work. But inside? You’re tired. Disconnected. Maybe even a little resentful.

You didn’t start your business to play it safe. You’re not here to follow someone else’s rulebook, work yourself into the ground, or copy what “works” just because it worked for someone else.

You’re here for something deeper.

Let’s be honest, entrepreneurship looks different from the inside. To the outside world, you’re the picture of success. You’re the one people call driven, confident, and inspiring. But behind the curtain? There are days when everything feels wobbly. Like you’re spinning 12 plates and one more “ping” from your inbox might break you.

If you’re a woman running a business, especially if you’re 40+ and have lived some life you might not feel like a leader. You might think that’s a role reserved for women in boardrooms or politics. But here’s the truth:

If you want to increase your business from six to seven figures, you need to increase your revenue. But here’s the secret: it’s not about working harder—it’s about marketing smarter.

What’s the point of growing your business if you’re working yourself into exhaustion? Scaling to seven figures isn’t about working longer hours, it’s about designing a business that gives you freedom.

As entrepreneurs, we’re wired to go, go, go. There’s always another task, another goal, another mountain to climb. Success is measured by what we accomplish, how productive we are, and how many hours we put in.

But here’s the truth: doing more isn’t the answer.

Does your business feel like freedom or a never-ending to-do list? If you find yourself drowning in daily operations, working late nights, and constantly putting out fires—then it’s time to take back control and run your business like a true CEO.

Why do so many businesses put all their energy (and marketing dollars) into client acquisition while neglecting retention? studies show that acquiring a new customer can cost five times more than retaining an existing one. And loyal customers? They don’t just stick around; they spend more, buy more often, and bring their friends along.

Before we can inspire a community, mobilize change, or lift others up, we must first lead ourselves. That means showing up with integrity, taking ownership of our actions, and setting an example that others want to follow.

Self-care is not sel-fish and can deepen and enrich our lives beyond measure. Let’s explore some transformative self-care practices that have not only enriched my life but have profoundly changed it.

Did you know that 88% of successful people read for at least 30 minutes daily? Books are more than just information—they’re catalysts for new ideas, fresh perspectives and innovative solutions.

According to McKinsey, companies that prioritize innovation grow at twice the rate of those that don’t.

Trust is the foundation of every great relationship, and every great business. But are you actively cultivating it? Trust isn’t built overnight—but it can be lost in an instant.

To lead a thriving business, you must see your business not as the CEO but through your customers’ eyes. This shift in perspective is where real growth begins.

Studies show that 82% of consumers prefer live videos from brands over social posts, highlighting the demand for real-time interaction. Can a single live stream elevate your brand? Absolutely—if done strategically.

According to LinkedIn, 79% of professionals consider networking crucial for career success. Online communities amplify this by breaking geographical barriers, allowing you to interact with experts and potential clients from around the globe. It’s not just about referrals; it’s about creating a supportive ecosystem where everyone thrives.

The self-education movement is transforming how we learn, making online communities more crucial than ever. Gone are the days when formal education was the only path to success. Today, people like you and me are creating and sharing knowledge through niche online courses, workshops, and communities.

Imagine being part of a global network where ideas flow freely, connections are boundless, and your influence knows no limits. What if you could design this future today?

Online communities have revolutionized how we connect, learn, and grow. For business owners, the potential is limitless, but success demands a ten-year vision. Why ten years?

The interview with Julianne Wutke starts: “My biggest inspiration for starting my business was that I needed help so badly. I was in total denial with both food and alcohol and the body changes that come with being in my 50’s made it seem worse. I was feeling like an old person. I was 50 pounds overweight and felt miserable. I knew I needed a different path. “
