In 2019, I read Atomic Habits by James Clear, which completely changed my life.

It forced me to have a hard look at my life and business goals and evaluate just how I was getting there with my daily actions. The next year in business I doubled my growth, the following year we grew another 20%, and the harmony that I experienced between my personal and professional life changed completely.

I credit so much of this with prioritizing what I was doing behind the scenes, the unexpected daily habits that gave me the space and advantage to make me a better business owner.

Today on the Authentic Brand Builders podcast (and blog) we’re diving into those unexpected habits that have made me a better business owner. I’m a firm believer that how we spend our time directly affects how we run our businesses, and we’ll uncover that today.

Inside today’s episode of the Authentic Brand Builders podcast, we’ll dive into:

• The habit that transformed my productivity, and has allowed me to get more done in less time - it’s been one of my secrets to working smarter, not harder.

• What I implemented into my habit stack when I got burned out on personal development and how my business changed as a result.

• My “Not-To-Do-List” and how I use it as a business owner.

As we wrap up another year and get ready to step into the new year, I’ve been reflecting on what I would do if I were to start my business from scratch today.

Having been an entrepreneur for nine years, I’ve seen the ups, downs, and dramatic changes in the industry. There are things that have completely shifted and things that honestly have remained the same.

Here are five approaches that I believe would accelerate your business growth and set you up for long-term success.

Inside today’s episode of the Authentic Brand Builders podcast, we’ll dive into:

• Why PR should be your top priority and how building a network of collaborators can accelerate your brand growth.

• The secret to focusing on sales from day one and how long-form content like podcasts and YouTube can drive sustainable success.

• The essential mindset changes you need to take confident action and make your business thrive.
