You didn’t start your business to manage a to-do list. You started it to create something meaningful and sustainable. But somewhere along the way, “team” became just another line item, and you felt stuck between wanting to do everything yourself and knowing it was time to trust others to take some of the load off.

In the third episode of our 5th anniversary series on She Thinks Big, you’ll learn what it really means to lead and not just hire, delegate, or manage. Through the lens of my own five-year evolution, I’ll share how everything shifted the moment I realized that the growth of my business has never been a solo act. I’ll also reveal five powerful lessons that will help you lead with clarity instead of control, hire from purpose instead of panic, and build a team that scales both your business and your belief in others.

Beliefs are the invisible architects behind every decision, every pivot, and every result you create. They don’t start as plans but as whispers of possibility. I learned this thanks to a simple Saturday visit to Homearama that led to a life-altering decision, and it’s something I see repeatedly with my clients, too.

In the second episode of our 5th anniversary series on She Thinks Big, you’ll discover how beliefs can shape your reality and why upgrading them changes everything. Using tools like my TRUST framework, I’ll also show you how to move from belief to action and give you a simple process to change any belief you want.

What’s Covered in This Episode on Why Belief Is the Blueprint

2:15 – How a spontaneous weekend outing planted the seed of a new possibility

10:11 – Why “beliefs create results” isn’t motivational fluff—it’s how your brain is wired

11:18 – What happens to old beliefs when you level up and what it takes to upgrade

12:25 – The TRUST framework: the five-step process that turns belief into action

15:01 – An example of how belief can protect your ego and sabotage progress

16:26 – A simple three-step action plan for changing your beliefs

17:59 – What Homearama taught me about gratitude and ambition

20:32 – A tiny sneak peek into episode three of the series

What began as Time to Level Up has transformed into something much bigger. It’s not just a podcast but a movement and a mirror reflecting the power of women who choose to grow on purpose. It symbolizes how your business and mindset can evolve and why “thinking big” means embracing progress over perfection. So we’re celebrating five years of bold thinking, evolution, and growth with a five-part anniversary series!

In the kickoff to this series on She Thinks Big, you’ll dive deep into one of the most foundational themes in entrepreneurship: priorities. I’ll share how saying yes to everything once felt like the key to success and what I’ve learned since then about focus, time as a mind reflection, and the freedom that comes from aligning your energy with what truly matters.

If you’ve ever struggled to find balance between growth and grace or wondered if changing your priorities means you’ve failed, this episode will reframe how you view your time, energy, and power as a CEO.

What’s Covered in This Episode on Shifting Priorities to Build Your Business

1:56 – Reflecting on the earliest days of the podcast and what it’s really all about

8:28 – Why I used to say yes to every opportunity (and what I’ve learned since)

10:24 – How your shifting priorities reflect growth, not failure

12:37 – How time is a reflection of your mind

13:55 – What your energy reveals about what you really value

16:17 – How to identify your future-focused priorities and act on them this week

17:24 – Bonus assignment: the beauty of saying “no”

20:41 – A sneak peek into the next episode of the series
