How Do We Get Clear About What’s Really Important in Our Business?

Published on: 16th July, 2018

“We need to become more aware of where we’re operating from.”

In this week’s episode, Sonya and Laura discuss the importance of having clarity around what is really important in our business, not just what we need to “do”, but also what to put our attention on for the most results. A lot of business owners struggle with prioritizing in their business. It is easy to lose money, time and energy focused on things that don’t add to our income or impact. Knowing what is really important creates the space we need to succeed in our business, and our life.

“When we give ourselves space… and have an idea of what we want to create.. the tasks become more effortless”

Sonya and Laura discuss both internal and external factors that can distract us from our goals. It can be easy to find ourselves swept up in external distractions that can pull our focus from the heart of our business. It is crucial to recognize how social media, and a myriad of business tactics can leave us feeling unbalanced, and unfocused. Starting the day with clarity and focus, instead of being swept into busyness, can dramatically change the course of our day.

“So many of us are wasting time and energy on things that don’t really matter”

If you run a business, you have realized that it feels impossible to actually accomplish all that you feel you need to in a given day. How do you navigate a never-ending task list, and end the day empowered to continue? Identifying your core tasks and recognizing the importance of delegation, can help give clarity in your work.

“If you only had two hours a week to spend on your business, what are the things that would be most important for you to do?”

About the Podcast

Women in the Business Arena™
There is no one right way to do business, there is just a right way for YOU! And many women in business are DONE with hustle, bro-marketing culture, and business tactics that are misaligned with their values.

Instead, more women are looking to build a business that honors their passion, gifts & wisdom.

If you are ready for a DIFFERENT way to operate your business - one that brings ease, challenges the patriarchal status quo, and helps you make a difference in the world (with both your business & your bank account), then this podcast is for you!

Sonya Stattmann uses her 21 years of experience working with thousands of women in business to facilitate honest, educational & inspiring conversations with other women leaders, business owners, and experts.

She also has regular conversations with our resident mental health expert, Laura-Shook Guzman, to tackle mindset, thinking, and the patterns that sabotage women’s path to business success.

This is a DIFFERENT kind of business podcast!
