My journey to sustainable business success, with Good Money Vibes Podcast
This month, I got to sit down with Emilie Nutley on her podcast, Good Money Vibes.
Emilie, a skilled money coach for female business owners, empowers her clients to take charge of their finances, overcome limiting beliefs, and rewrite their money stories. And let me tell you... I.loved.every.minute!
Emilie’s guest episodes are part of a series called ‘Cashflow Confessions’ - and on each episode, a guest shares their own money journey. On mine, I share my transformation from the chaos of hourly pricing to building a sustainable anti-hustle business model.
For those of you who are reading my blog for the first time, I’m Paulina, a Business Solutions Specialist - where Operations and Digital Marketing meet, and chaotic business practices come to die 😉 I help people find method in the madness of their businesses, and with over a decade of experience in project and team management, I’ve become obsessed with streamlining workflows and creating digital marketing strategies that not only work but also feel right.
Over the past 2,5 years of self-employment I’ve learned a ton about balancing creativity, strategy, and, most importantly, myself, and I unpack it all in this podcast.
LISTEN BELOW!
Here’s what you’ll learn…
✨ The mindset shifts needed to overcome pricing struggles
I know I’m not alone with this one! Like a lot of self-employed folks, I’ve struggled with the mindset of not feeling worthy of charging what my services are actually worth.
✨ Why tracking your time and energy is your secret weapon as a solopreneur
Being your own boss means you’re in charge of everything. Finances, marketing, client work—you name it, it’s on you. Keeping track of income, expenses, and forecasting what’s ahead is something I’ve had to get really intentional about.
✨Practical strategies to move beyond hourly rates and into value-based pricing
One of the best decisions I made in my business was moving from hourly pricing to value based pricing. Listen to the episode to hear the pros and cons of each approach and find what works for you!
✨How systems can help keep burnout at bay while helping your business grow
Whether it’s automating tasks or creating workflows that save your sanity, a little upfront effort can save you so much time and stress in the long run; and when it comes to managing your finances: know your numbers. Seriously, know what’s coming in, what’s going out, and what you can expect down the line. It’s not as scary as it sounds once you make it a habit.
This conversation with Emilie made me reflect on my self employed journey so far and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that success isn’t just about having the right strategies. It’s about creating systems and habits that support you. Your business should feel like it’s working for you, not the other way around.
So if you’re looking for the right support with your operations or digital marketing, look no further!
