276. Lessons Behind A 225K Month

Behind The Business

Show Notes

We just hit a history-making milestone in my business: a $225,000 cash month. It is absolutely wild to look back and realize that just one year ago, I was celebrating my very first $100k month. But while the numbers on the stripe account look beautiful, I want to pull back the curtain and show you what it actually looks like to hold that level of success. In this episode, I’m getting incredibly raw and vulnerable about why June was both my highest-earning month and the most challenging season of leadership I’ve ever walked through.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn: The exact definition of holding "duality" in business and why you can’t scale to $30k, $50k, or $100k+ months if you have a meltdown over minor inconveniences.

Behind-the-scenes details of the leadership tests I faced this month, including letting go of an underperforming team member and firing a client to protect my community.

The 3 things in business that I value significantly more than money—and how your actions must back up your words when push comes to shove.

How I completely removed myself from sales calls this week, and how my new closer closed 5 premium clients in her first 24 hours.

Why re-filling your calendar is a natural byproduct of business growth, and the strategic steps you must take to delegate before you feel "ready."

If you want your next year in business to be your biggest yet, waiting until January to start doing something about it is a recipe for burnout. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on why January is actually too late to start building your momentum. For years, I fell into the trap of slowing down in Q4 because of the false belief that "people don't buy right now." Man, was I wrong! People actually spend the most money, reflect the deepest, and make the most decisive moves toward their goals during this exact season.

We officially have less than 100 days left of 2026, and in this episode, I am breaking down exactly how you can turn these final months into your biggest revenue quarter yet. For years, I fell into the trap of believing that nobody buys during the holiday season because everyone is too busy. That limiting belief cost me thousands of dollars. Once I shifted my mindset and realized that Q4 is actually when people spend the most money, reflect on their progress, and invest in their futures, everything changed. You don't need a frantic, chaotic launch to win right now—you just need the right belief, a clear bottleneck audit, and a sustainable business model that lets you scale spaciously.
