Meg shares specific examples of her own failures, including making wrong hiring decisions, not saving enough money, separating from her husband during a pandemic, and having a high-cost launch with low profits. She also highlights the importance of learning from failures and shifting one's perspective to see them as opportunities for growth. Takeaways Failure is an essential part of the journey to success. Most successful people have experienced multiple failures before achieving their goals. It is important to learn from failures and see them as opportunities for growth and learning. When making hiring decisions, it is crucial to do due diligence and ensure that the results are there, even if the person is referred by a trusted source. Spending money on things that serve a purpose and bring value is more important than spending money on things for the sake of appearances. Hiring essential team members and avoiding unnecessary expenses can lead to a leaner and more successful business. Separation and challenges in relationships can sometimes be the key to building a stronger and more fulfilling partnership. Testing and proving a program or product organically before investing in ads can save time, money, and energy. Shifting one's perspective on failure and seeing it as a stepping stone to success can change the trajectory of one's business and life. →My "Museum of Failures" post: https://www.instagram.com/p/C-aWatKJpR3/ →My $18K Mishap: How to Bounce Back After a Bad Investment and Trust Again:: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-prettyawkward-entrepreneur-podcast/id1471547197?i=1000608130094 →DM me "REMODEL" on Instagram to apply for my 1-1 Biz Remodel Coaching https://www.instagram.com/meganyelaney/

In this episode, Meg discusses why she is able to consistently resign the same clients despite multiple business changes. She shares statistics on client retention and the benefits of selling to existing customers. Meg emphasizes the importance of extending the lifetime value of ideal clients and the advantages of working with familiar clients.

S1 Ep 350Balancing Business and Babies: Why "Doing It All" is Dangerous
This episode discusses the importance of balancing business and family life and challenges the narrative of 'doing it all'. Meg shares her personal experience of prioritizing her business over her marriage and the realization that family memories are more valuable than money or success. She emphasizes the concept of a 'life first, business second' approach, where entrepreneurs build their businesses around their life priorities. The episode also explores the idea that business topics may evolve over time and encourages listeners to find passion and purpose in their work. Meg cautions against comparing oneself to the unrealistic expectations set by society and highlights the need for self-compassion. Takeaways No amount of money, recognition, or success is worth missing out on core memories with your family. Entrepreneurs who prioritize their life first and build their business around it are more likely to build long-lasting businesses and make a bigger impact. It's important to regularly reassess and align your business goals with your life priorities. Finding passion and purpose in your work is crucial for long-term fulfillment. Comparing yourself to others and trying to 'do it all' can lead to feelings of failure and burnout.

Consider your time availability on a daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis, and identify non-negotiable commitments that may affect your business. Evaluate your energetic capacity and make adjustments to your schedule and workload accordingly. Prioritize your health by assessing your movement/exercise, eating habits, social media use, and personal growth habits. Examine your relationship with money and success, and ensure that your financial goals align with your core values.
