PODCAST: Season 6, Episode 13
Grab your coffee and join me today as I dive into the reality of different business timelines and results. Through two powerful client case studies, I’m sharing unfiltered truth about why some businesses see fast returns while others take longer – and why both paths can lead to success. If you’ve been comparing your timeline to others and feeling discouraged, this episode will give you the perspective and action steps you need.
Key Topics Covered
In this value-packed episode, I explore:
- Two real client case studies with dramatically different success timelines
- Why comparing business timelines without context is misleading
- The crucial factors that influence how quickly you’ll see results
- How to build resilience when results take longer than expected
- Practical ways to measure progress beyond just sales numbers

Understanding Your Business Timeline
Your results depend on factors unique to you:
- Your starting point and existing foundations
- Whether you have an established network and credibility
- Your business model (high ticket vs. low volume)
- Your market’s typical buying cycle
- How quickly you can implement strategies
- Your consistency level day after day
Building Resilience for the Journey
- Focus on what’s working by tracking clear metrics
- Celebrate milestones along the way
- Build a support system that understands the entrepreneurial journey
- Learn to distinguish between “not working yet” and “not working at all”
- Commit to the process and trust your strategy
Action Steps
Grab a piece of paper and create two columns:
- First column: List all visible metrics of success (revenue, client numbers, testimonials)
- Second column: Write down invisible progress indicators (clarity, content created, relationships built)
- Circle three items from the second column that you can celebrate right now
