When It’s Messy… But You’re Still Moving

Howdy Howdy Reader, These weeks are flying. Honestly, it’s all a bit of a blur. Some wins.Some punches.Some “we’re back!” moments.Some “how are we still here?” moments. And if I’m honest… that’s probably a pretty accurate picture of life in general too. if you missed last weeks: read it here The Battle No One Sees This week felt like a battle to the end. Not dramatic.Not catastrophic. Just that quiet, grinding kind of battle where you’re pushing hard to get back on track and you’re not quite...

Yo Yo Reader, Wrapping up last week, my head’s been in two places. When I’m busy, building, moving, solving…I’m not thinking about the problems. When I slow down? That’s when the questions creep in. And I think that’s true for most of us. if you missed last weeks: read it here The Frustration of “Doing the Right Things” Here’s the tension: You show up.You put in the work.You improve the process.You try new angles.You push yourself outside your comfort zone. And still… the results don’t...

Yo Yo Reader, This week has been… interesting. Not terrible.Not amazing.Just one of those weeks where the numbers show up — but not the way you want them to. We’re seeing results. Just not the results I’m chasing. And that gap?That’s where your mindset gets tested. if you missed last weeks: read it here When You’re Caught in the Middle I’ve felt it this week. On one side, there are people ahead of me saying: “Ride the wave. It’s normal. Stay steady.” On the other side, there’s noise. Panic....

Yo Yo Reader, This might sound strange… but one of my biggest fears right now isn’t failure. It’s success. More specifically success in the wrong direction. Let me explain. if you missed last weeks: read it here The fear nobody talks about I’ve got a few opportunities sitting in front of me right now. On paper?They look good. They could add revenue.They could grow faster than expected.They could even outperform parts of what I’m currently doing. And that’s exactly what makes me nervous....

Hey Hey Reader, This week felt like one of those ones where everything happens… and yet somehow it all blurs together. (seems to be the case every week) Not because nothing happened, but because so much did. Decisions. Conversations. Planning. Adjusting. Testing. Rethinking.By the end of it, I caught myself thinking, “What did I actually do this week?”But the truth is: I didn’t stop. It was just mental work instead of physical work. And that’s a different kind of tired. if you missed last...

Yo Reader, What a week! Other than being a scorcher on the weather front... Progress has been made and I am excited to challenge you with "Learning More" to get a better outcome! If you missed last weeks newsletter - click here So this week, it was one of those ones that starts heavy, feels chaotic, and then... almost quietly... turns into something really powerful. There were moments early this week where things didn’t look how I wanted them to. It felt messy. Uncertain. Emotional. And yeah,...

Hey Hey Reader, First week back! Its been an exciting week. Motivations are high. Excitement of new opportunities. New challenges and problems to solve. Nerves raging as we start from 0 again. It can be very overwhelming getting back into a groove, or hitting reset at the start of the year. So today, a few things to remind and share with you on how this can be managed.

Happy New Year Reader, I’ve just come back from four weeks away... and I mean properly away.No socials. No noise. The business running without me. And for two of those weeks, the team switched off too. It was unfamiliar, as it was the most switch off without constant "still on in my mind" and honestly… it was exactly what I needed. This Week’s (or 4 weeks) Realisation Stepping away didn’t weaken anything, it strengthened it. I had my second marriage ceremony with Karlas family while away, we...

Howdy Reader, A year ago, I wrote about “catching a break” and back then, it was coming from a place of hope.I was in the thick of uncertainty, trying to convince myself that if I just kept pushing, something had to give. Now, a year later, I’ve realised something important: You don’t wait for a break... you become it. Reflecting from where I was last year... lower sales, lower revenue, lower profits... and feeling a squeeze. Here I am again 1 year later, with the feeling of being squeezed...
