How to Navigate a Low Income Month in Your Business
So, you’re having a low income month, or a few? Let’s talk about that. Welcome back to the show and thanks for tuning in. I’m your host, Lidiya, and I’ve been seeing lower numbers in my business for quite some time now. So I thought, why not record an episode about it, be real, normalize all this, and share my best tips on how to deal with low revenue and still keep working on your business and loving your life no matter what the numbers are saying. Listen to the episode below: Show Notes: * The energy of a good month in business vs that of a bad one * What the low income actually means * Taking your power back by sharing your numbers * Finding the lesson in the low numbers * How to run your business with a regulated nervous system * Choosing the path less traveled * What to do during a low income month Transcript When money is flowing in, we feel good. When the revenue is growing, we’re doing our best work, we’re inspired and motivated to work on new things. It may feel like this is the new normal. Don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t mean easy.
