When It’s Hard, Let’s Make It Easy

Life can feel heavy sometimes, can’t it? I get it.

As a single mam running my business since Ults was a baby, I’ve been the sole breadwinner—the only source of income for my family.

Single parenthood is all I’ve known as a business owner, and let me tell you, the temptation to make things harder than they need to be is *real*. 

I see it with my clients too. So many of them juggle their own pressures—family, finances, or just the chaos of entrepreneurship—and there’s this sneaky urge to overcomplicate everything.

Maybe you’ve felt it too? Like if it’s not complex, it’s not enough? 

But here’s what I’ve learned (and what I love helping people with): **when it’s hard, it’s time to make it easy**. My job is to simplify your business model, help you focus on the right things at the right time, and take effective action—without all the extra stress. 

For so many of my clients, this comes as a huge relief. We strip away the complications together, and suddenly they have clarity on exactly what they should be doing. It’s like a weight lifts. 

Where Are You Overcomplicating Things? 

You’re not alone if you’re stuck in that “it’s too hard” spiral. So, let’s pause and think: where might you be making things tougher than they need to be? Is it chasing too many ideas at once? Trying to do all the marketing things? Saying yes to everything until you’re stretched thin? 

Here’s a simple way to cut through the noise: 

1. What Do You Want to Achieve?

   Pick one clear goal—maybe it’s more clients, a revenue boost, or finally launching that project. What’s yours? 

2. What Are the Key Steps?

 Jot down 2-3 actions that will get you there. Not a million—just the essentials. For example: reaching out to past clients, sharing one focused offer, or following up on warm leads. 

3. Take Those Steps First

Do them before you add anything else. No new tools, no extra plans—just the stuff that matters most. 

Let’s Keep It Simple Together 

I’ve had to learn this the hard way as a single mam keeping my business going while being there for my son. Simplicity isn’t just nice—it’s how I survive and thrive. And it’s how I can help you too. 

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, take a deep breath. You don’t have to do it all. Focus on what moves the needle, and let the rest wait. And if you’d like a hand simplifying your business, I’m here—let’s make it easy together. Just hit reply and tell me what’s feeling hard right now.
