Hey there,
In episode 1, I shared my story about struggling in corporate America and starting my first service-based business.
Fast forward 11 years, and that business has become my 9-5 job. It's where I pour most of my work energy, and I'm accountable to a team. So, I show up like everyone else to empower my team to do their own work.
As I started my second service-based business, I realized I needed to implement boundaries to create more time for it. In today's episode, I discuss the three boundaries you need to implement to create that additional time after your 9-5 job.
If you're working a 9-5 job and wondering how to create more time for your service-based business, this episode is for you.

Hello there,
Have you ever been interrupted by SMS, calls, or emails when you were determined to get some productive work done on your business idea? If you answered yes, you're not alone.
As Christian moms or individuals passionate about launching service-based business ideas, we often have to fight through interruptions and distractions to produce something meaningful that impacts lives, makes a profit, and glorifies God.
In episode 3, I introduced the concept of "The Power of 15mins" and how it could be used to beat overwhelm and create more time. In today's episode, I'll teach you how to use the same concept to reset and refocus after experiencing interruptions and distractions.
If you have a specific business question you want me to answer, please go to startthatbusinesspodcast.com and send me your question.
I pray this episode encourages you.
