The Stop Start Cycle is when you know what to do to build your business and you start doing it - but then you stop doing it before it's done and move onto something else. When you're in the Stop Start Cycle, you have an inspired idea > feel excited > start taking action > have a different inspired idea > feel excited > start taking action on the second idea > and on and on. Lots of ideas, lots of action, nothing finished. But there's nothing wrong with you!

As perfectionists, we tend to do one of two things when it comes to business decisions. We either (1) tie our own hands behind our back and refuse to change the decision for fear of being flaky or (2) we change our mind constantly and never follow through long enough to see results. To grow your business you need to be able to update your decisions. In this episode, I'm walking you through my exact process for updating decisions without losing self-trust or being flaky - as well as three decisions I've recently made in my own business.

Our perfectionist all-or-nothing mindset is what makes us rebel from our calendars. That is, unless you're planning properly as a perfectionist. I used to be the person who couldn't follow through with my calendar for more than a couple of days. Yet no matter how much time I spent planning everything out, I kept rebelling. It wasn't because I didn't have what it takes to be my own boss. It was simply because I was unknowingly making some pretty big planning mistakes that were making my perfectionist mindset working against me. In this episode I'm sharing 8 calendaring mistakes that are unknowingly causing you to rebel against your calendar. And I walk you through how Power Planning solves for each of them in the easiest and most practical way. If you want to be able to rely on yourself to follow through with your plans whilst having lots of flexibility and freedom in your week, this episode is for you. READY FOR MORE?
