Actionable Tips & Growth Strategies for Ambitious Business Owners

There's No "right" Way to Start A New Freedom Business

January 01, 2025â€ĸ2 min read

Scrolling through social media a lot lately looking for the next opportunity to grow your business? Let's be honest, it's like watching two different movies play out...

On one side, you've got the "start strong," "hustle harder," "crush those goals" crowd, sharing their perfectly mapped out 2025 strategies 🐅

And then there's the "take it slow," "reflect first," "honor your journey" tribe, encouraging everyone to process 2024 before making any moves... 😸

So one of my clients messaged me right after the holidays saying "I feel so behind already... everyone seems to have their whole year mapped out, and I'm still processing 2024!"

My response?

"Let's talk about how YOU want to grow this year..."

Here's what's really happening right now:

Your social media feeds are flooded with:

→ Beyond epic quarterly goals

→ People "Crushing it" energy posts

→ Calls for slow starts and deep reflection

While both approaches are valid, let's address what really matters:

đŸĒĢ You don't want:

  • To start the year feeling overwhelmed

  • More pressure to "figure it all out"

  • To force yourself into someone else's template

🔋 You DO want:

  • To make 2025 work for YOU

  • To find your natural rhythm

  • To create sustainable success

How alignment can be your business guide:

Here's the truth: Without alignment, you won't experience real freedom – your business will feel like a constant uphill battle. Trust me, I learned this the hard way (hello, 2024 identity crisis! 😅).

I've prepared alignment questions for you to do a little business alignment check-in:

→ What energy actually feels good to YOU right now?

→ Why does starting "strong" or "slow" matter to you?

→ Do you actually love how others are approaching 2025?

→ What does YOUR perfect start look like?

→ What would be your expected return on pushing yourself right now?

But when you choose YOUR perfect timing and approach?

That's when magic happens đŸ”‹đŸ’°â¤ī¸

My gift to you for an Aligned 2025 start of the year:

  1. Give yourself FULL PERMISSIONS to start YOUR way (fast, slow, or somewhere in between)

  2. Only a 1-2 planning and reflection methods that actually feel good to you. (avoid overwhelm)

  3. Create a simplified action plan that matches YOUR energy (you don't need to have everything figured it out right now)

Remember: I have my own way of planning 2025 – but that's MY aligned expression. Your path might look completely different, and that's exactly how it should be.
