Around the fall of last year, I started thinking more deeply about how I was using my time and if there were better ways to spend it. The kind of leader I wanted to be was one who could serve her mission, team, and community at the highest level, but my current calendar didn’t reflect that.

To show up as the energized and connected leader I wanted to be, I needed to make some shifts to how I was spending and scheduling my time. I know so many of you are feeling drained, overwhelmed, or exhausted by your calendars, and I can totally relate.

Your biggest asset as a female founder is your time. Talking about how you use it can inspire other women to think about how they use theirs and even help them make some empowered decisions to create changes. I'm hoping that what I share today empowers you to look at your time differently.

There are some key shifts I made to my calendar that have significantly improved my ability to show up as a leader. I’m sharing these shifts, some things for you to consider if you want to make these shifts too, and the amazing results I’ve observed since making these changes.

There’s no doubt that growing a business is one of the most epic personal and professional development journeys you can take in life. Besides the cash, influence, and autonomy that is there to be gained as an owner, having the collection of skills that a seven-figure company demands you acquire will set you up for life.

As I look back at my journey as a founder, there are a handful of skills I’ve worked tirelessly to bring into my repertoire. And as I cast my mind back, there’s a very specific order in which I needed to build them in for them to feed off of one another.

While you’re using all of your leadership skills at once, building them all simultaneously is incredibly difficult. So, in this episode, I’m identifying the skills that you need to be an effective and successful CEO, and I’m laying out how to strategically build those leadership skills.

Tune in this week to discover the skills that every founder needs to build, and why, especially in the early days, you are your business’s most valuable asset. I’m sharing the secrets to making strategic investments in your every area of your development, and the dangers of narrowing your focus instead of elevating your capacity for every skill your business requires of you.

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

  • Why you are the most important asset your business has.
  • How strategic investments in your personal and professional growth will lay the foundation for even bigger assets.
  • The importance of building your skills in a way that meets the needs of your business at each stage of its development.
  • Why you need a baseline level of skill in operating every single area of your company, at least in the early stages.
  • A cautionary tale of the pitfalls of only focusing on one area of your development.
  • The specific skills every founder needs and the order in which I recommend you build them.

As entrepreneurs, we’re raised in a culture that says more is better. You need to hustle and grind your way to the top. But if you’ve been listening to this podcast for any length of time, you know that I am not about that life.

There is definitely a time and place for us to get our hands dirty and work hard. It’s when that level of intense work becomes the norm that we become numb to our pain and the things that bother us.
