Katie and I dive deep into how she turned her business around by ditching the "scale-at-all-costs" mentality and zeroing in on profit margins.  We dive into the power of financial planning, specifically how using a 12-month forecast helped Katie feel confident enough to leave her job as an electrical contractor, fully commit to entrepreneurship and create a life she\u2019s actually excited to live.  Katie also introduces her new venture, Breathe, which is all about helping other entrepreneurs avoid burnout through intentional lifestyle design. It\u2019s a refreshing take on business - one that puts wellbeing and balance at the forefront. We chat about what it\u2019s like running a business with family, including the dynamics, the boundaries, and the benefits of working with people you trust.  And finally, we explore how finding your \u201csweet spot\u201d in business - that place where things run well without being overwhelming - can make all the difference. It\u2019s a proper behind-the-scenes look at how we\u2019ve made big shifts, both in the business and in life - and why it\u2019s paying off in more ways than one. Give it a listen, and as always, let me know your biggest takeaways.  You can connect with Katie across socials via her links below: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/haineshomes_\/  https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/katie-harvey-097571195\/ UFD RESOURCES:  \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb DOWNLOAD A COPY OF OUR BOOK SMALL BUSINESS BIG PROFIT FOR FREE: https:\/\/ultimate-fd.webflow.io\/small-business-big-profit \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb HOW FINANCIALLY FIT IS YOUR BUSINESS?
