In this episode, I'm interviewing PGSDer Olivia Fox, who walks us through the practical ways that she's used her Growth Goal and Power Planning to help her increase her business revenue while having a better work-life balance at the same time.

If you have courageous tasks you know you need to do right now and you're just not doing them, then this episode is for you. Olivia and I talk about how she gets herself to do those courageous tasks. We discuss how you actually go from being someone who intellectually understands what is required to build a business to being the person who actually builds the business.
