This month has been terrifying for me because, for the first time, I went on a proper holiday.

Holidays used to be so fun - a way to escape from work.

But for the first time, I felt anxious that I was going on leave.

Yes, it meant no work calls, pitching, emails, checking my calendar & administrative work.

But it also meant I was letting go of my business for the next two weeks.

And I was full of anxiety & dread.

❓Can I afford to do this?

❓Do I have the right systems in place?

❓Will July be a month of zero profit without me running the business?!

Surely I should go back to work…

Because after becoming my own boss, I realised that weekends no longer have meaning. It’s just another day to work and earn an income, or have zero in my bank account. 🤑

And that’s a terrifying thought.

That said, I know that sustainability is the key to being a successful entrepreneur.

And that starts with letting go & building systems in place that ensure that my business continues to run even without me.

My Secret: Hiring a salesperson.

For the last 3 months, I tested her ability to take calls with prospective leads.

I gave her a brief script, lower risk leads and did a review of every call she had. Over time as she improved, I gave her more calls to close.

While having someone else do the calls will never be the same as doing it myself, I was confident enough to take this break.

Recharge.

Find the fire to keep pushing for the second half of 2023.

This break has been an incredible time for me to reconnect with family, friends, old colleagues and some clients (!!) in New York.

And I’m ready to get back in the game and help you find the dream job that you deserve.

It’s time to take hold of our future and build a career that’s fit for us. 🤩
