Business success is such a broad concept. We can define it a variety of ways. Oftentimes, when we own a small business we define it in ways that are actually incredibly unhelpful because we are looking way too far into the future. In Doula Businesses we need to learn to celebrate wins and steps toward goals and not just the big goals that we have!

Today is all about the journey to building my team in my business. Why I did it, how it has gone! If you’re a small business owner you need to consider when and how you’d build your business team. That may be soon or maybe it will be later, but regardless it’s something people need to consider.

Today I’m walking you through the timeline of my business. Because I’m tired of the get-rich-quick schemes and language that are going around. I want you to have context for realistic growth. I’m NOT saying you have to grow like I did, because you could do it a bunch better/faster! But I am saying I want you to have the context of what it took for me to get here to this beautiful 6-figure business place.

Today we are discussing networking! What kind of providers would I want to network with in my doula business?

And then of course, midwives and OBs.

Today we are discussing rest! Rest is vital on all levels. Mental, physical, and emotional especially when we are giving so much to our clients on a regular basis.

So should we be a one stop shop? Life happens sometimes and if you are that “one stop shop” where you have multiple incomes from your business coming in, that can be helpful. Let’s talk about some way you can be making that extra dough and also set yourself up to have that “easy life” later one.

Controversial opinion here: Certificates are great and all, but they can also hinder your business. I said what I said. Certifications are fantastic but it’s being strategic with what certificates you get that is going to help grow your business.

Trust me, it’ll catch up to you eventually.
