If you’ve been in the online business world, you’ve likely been told that hitting seven figures is the ultimate marker of success. But what if chasing that goal isn’t aligned with the life you truly want?

Rethinking seven-figure goals has been a game-changer for me. For years, I believed that scaling bigger was the key to success. But when I mapped out my dream life, I realized that chasing multi-seven figures could pull me further from the life I wanted to create.

Let’s dive into why bigger isn’t always better and how you can redefine success on your own terms.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

Why Bigger Isn’t Always Better:

Scaling to seven figures often comes with trade-offs like less time, more stress, and a higher risk of burnout. Rethinking seven-figure goals means questioning whether those trade-offs are worth it.

How I Mapped Out My Dream Life:

Learn the life-changing exercise I used (thanks to Lindsey Schwartz of Powerhouse Women) to figure out what success actually looks like for me.

The Trade-Offs of Scaling Bigger:

I’ll share why I phased out $7,500 system builds and pivoted to coaching and events that aligned better with my life goals.

Why Success Is Personal:

Success isn’t one-size-fits-all. Rethinking seven-figure goals means creating a vision of success that’s uniquely yours.

How I Mapped Out My Dream Life

Mapping out my dream life was the turning point for me. Instead of focusing on revenue milestones, I started asking myself these questions:

What does my ideal day-to-day life look like?

How much money do I really need to live that life?

What trade-offs am I willing—and not willing—to make?

Rethinking seven-figure goals led me to realize that my dream life didn’t require a massive business. Instead, I focused on creating offers and opportunities that supported my priorities, like flexibility, family time, and meaningful work.

Pro Tip: Sit down and map out your dream life. You might discover that your ideal version of success is closer than you think.

The Trade-Offs of Scaling Bigger

Walking away from $7,500 system builds might sound crazy, but it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Why? Because scaling bigger would’ve required me to manage an agency-style business—and that’s not aligned with the life I want.

Instead of following the traditional path, rethinking seven-figure goals gave me the freedom to pivot into coaching and events, where I could have a bigger impact without sacrificing my values.

Key Takeaways

Bigger Isn’t Always Better: Scaling up can sometimes pull you away from your dream life. It’s okay to ask, “Is this what I really want?”

Dream Life Mapping: Take the time to figure out what success looks like for you—it might be closer than you think.

Rethink Seven-Figure Goals: You don’t have to chase arbitrary milestones to be successful. Create a vision that aligns with your values and goals.
