Episode 70: Where I Eff'ed Up in 2021

"I know, let's do a 2022 planning and projecting episode, that would be unique and fun" said every business podcast host ever! Ha! Today I don't want to do what every other host is doing: sharing success, giving tips, vibing you up. I'm going to share where I sucked throughout '21. Yep, the bad, the bruised, the ugly, and the things I'm ashamed to admit. For an enneagram 3 like me, this is a bit of a struggle, but I'm going to lean in to the discomfort to show you that no Instagrammable business is perfect. Every business owner is working through some things behind the scenes. And today I'm sharing all the ways I messed up in 2021 and how I'm course-correcting for 2022.

Business as a whole
1. Head down action - not as much learning this year
2. Communications with my team - Asana, quarterly meetings, weekly emails - 2022 incorporate trainings for specific MKM methods
3. Waiting too long to bring on a dedicated MKM employee - know the difference between IC and W2 and you'll know when that shift needs to happen - already full again ha!
4. Overcommitting - I still do this - changing habits
1. Too often I said "I'm just not good with money" - avoid it - worked with Bo & Sheila Hansen - working through the discomfort of being someone who regularly checks financials
2. Made it hard and stressful - trying a money mindset shift, following more investing/finance on IG, working with professionals, building habits
Finances
1. Not enough friend time
Friendships
1. I worked too much - let my schedule take over. I love work, so I find myself wanting to do that because it lights me up and I'm good at it
2. Get stressed a lot at home - my attitude dictates my kids' attitude
Family
1. therapy
2. Talking about my feelings instead of avoiding them
3. Learning more
4. Accountability buddies
5. Physical fitness
Personal Development
