Confession time: I nearly threw away months of strategic planning for a quick win... and I'm betting you've felt that temptation too. If you're itching to create something new for your business right now, this episode might just save your sanity (and your Christmas break)...

Ever found yourself at your desk, surrounded by half-drunk cups of tea, frantically plotting out a new lead magnet or offer because you're convinced that's what your business needs right now? Trust me, I've been there – in fact, I almost derailed my own strategic plans just last month with a last-minute Black Friday panic!

Here's what I'm sharing in this week's cuppa and chat:

The real reason I binned my Black Friday plans (and why it turned out to be my smartest business move)

Why creating "just a quick lead magnet" is like saying you'll only eat one biscuit from the tin (we all know how that ends!)

My tried-and-tested tricks for making your existing content work as hard as a tea bag in a builder's brew

The simple tweaks that'll transform your customer journey from 'meh' to 'magnificent' (without having to start from scratch)

Plus, I'm lifting the lid on something exciting brewing for 2025 – a brand new year-long container for marketers who want to add ads to their offer suite! (join the waitlist here: LEAP)

Whether you're tempted to create a last-minute December offer or feeling the pressure to launch something new, this episode will help you step away from the panic-creating precipice and make strategic decisions that'll have you gliding into the new year feeling sorted.

Fancy a peek behind the curtain of a £60K launch that looked slightly unhinged (!) but wasn't nearly as spontaneous as it looked? Pour yourself a cuppa, because in this episode I'm sharing the full, unfiltered story of how I launched both a mastermind AND a minimind program (yes, at the same time - my team thought I'd lost the plot!)

Here's what I'm spilling the tea on:

• Why what looked like a 'quick' September launch actually started brewing back in April (and why this slow-cook approach was crucial to its success)
• The mindset wobbles that nearly stopped me launching altogether (spoiler: imposter syndrome doesn't care how experienced you are!)
• How I turned my 'failures' into my biggest selling points (and why my messy business journey became my secret weapon)
• The exact steps I took to build the right audience BEFORE launching (no last-minute scrambling required!)
• Why I made the slightly mad decision to launch two offers simultaneously (and how it actually worked out brilliantly)

Plus, I'm sharing how this launch helped me secure £15K in monthly revenue for the next six months - something that would have seemed absolutely crazy this time last year!

Ready to discover why sometimes the 'crazy' ideas are actually your best business moves? Pop the kettle on, grab your favourite biscuits, and let's dive into the truth behind launching bigger than you ever thought possible!

Ready to stop being a bottleneck and start being a Lionhearted CEO? Pop the kettle on, grab your favourite biscuits, and let's get stuck in!

READY TO LEAP INTO A

LionHearted CEO Mastermind:

How would it feel going into January knowing you had already secured 6 figures for 2025? THAT is what we're going to be creating in the Mastermind.

You've already got your core offers and some scalable offers (maybe too many...!). You might have a podcast or have written a book (or both!). But you know if you truly want to create a business where your revenue isn't tied to your time and energy, you need to be a hell of a lot more intentional about how you're growing your business.

You know you need to probably streamline your offers, invest in team support and actually start leveraging ads... but left doing it on your own, you know it won't happen (well, not fast enough!).

Sound perfect?

The LionHearted CEO is for you!

Click HERE for a video where I spill the tea on the Mastermind and HERE for all the info & how to sign up.

INEVITABLE Minimind:

You're not new to running your own business. You love running your business. But you are ready to take it up a level and start really seeing yourself as a business owner with secure, predictable revenue.

You're probably aiming for around £3-5k/m, you have a core offer but want to start to introduce additional revenue streams, ads, systems maybe some team support.

You know you want to scale and you want to prioritise getting the right foundations in place so that once you are ready, you can dial up the revenue, without burning out.

Sound perfect?

The INEVITABLE Mini Mind is for you!
