  • 71: What Got You Here, WON'T Get You There (Scalable Series #6)
    Sep 15 2025

    You got here by being the go to expert who does it all. That same approach is now the ceiling.

    In this episode, I show you what must change in your offer, operations, team, and mindset so your firm can run without you.

    We also check back in with our fictional consultants Riley and Jean. Same talent, very different weeks. Which one sounds like you right now?

  • 70: Build It Before You Need It - Why a Scalable Consulting Firm Matters (Scalable Series #5)
    Sep 8 2025

    Most consultants don’t think about scalability until it’s too late. By then the options are often shutting down, taking a job, or rebuilding from the ground up.

    In this episode, I share three stories that illustrate what happens when a business depends on one person to hold it all together. You’ll also hear why a scalable consulting firm isn’t just about growth, but about protection and possibility.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why waiting to scale can leave your business fragile
    • What protection and possibility really mean for consultants.
    • The four key facets of a scalable consulting firm.
    • How scalability creates margin in your time, money, and energy.

    This episode will help you reflect on the foundations of your own consulting business and what might need to shift before life interrupts.

  • 69: Do You Have A Scalable MINDSET? (Scalable Series #4)
    Aug 26 2025

    Mindset blocks aren’t always obvious. But they might be running your business.

    If you’ve been revisiting the same decisions, putting off your next hire, or waffling over your pricing, the problem might not be strategy. It might be mindset.

    In this episode, I walk through the Scalable Mindset framework and check in with the two fictional consultants we have been following, Riley and Jean, whose weeks look radically different based on how they respond to fear, capacity, and growth.

  • 68: Do You Have A Scalable TEAM? (Scalable Series #3)
    Aug 18 2025

    Are you the bottleneck in your business? Is your calendar packed with back to back appointments and constant task switching? Does every project depend on you? Have you mastered bringing in work, yet dread saying yes to one more client?

    Join us as we check in with our fictional consultants, Riley and Jean, to show how the same talent can lead to very different weeks when the business is set up differently.

    You will see that a scalable team is the engine that expands capacity without adding more of you. It sits on top of a repeatable offer and solid operations. When those foundations are in place, the team works independently, meets deadlines, anticipates client needs, and protects your calendar for true CEO work.

    Sounds dreamy, right?

  • 67: Do You Have Scalable OPERATIONS? (Scalable Series #2)
    Aug 11 2025

    Operations can be your greatest growth asset or your biggest roadblock.

    In this episode, we return to Riley and Jean to see how their very different approaches to running their consulting businesses are playing out. One is stuck in complexity and constant firefighting. The other is building something that runs smoothly, even when they step away.

    We will explore what makes operations truly scalable and why it matters so much once you start to grow. You will walk away with a fresh perspective on where your own systems might be slowing you down and what to focus on next.

    Listen now to see which consultant’s week feels more like yours and what could change if you focused on scaling simplicity.

  • 66: Do You Have A Scalable OFFER? (Scalable Series #1)
    Aug 4 2025

    Most consultants hit a ceiling. A scalable offer breaks it.
    If you’re a consultant who wants to grow but still feels stuck in client delivery, don't miss this episode.

    You’ll hear about two consultants. One is stuck managing everything. The other has space to think, lead, and grow. I break down what makes that shift possible.

    We walk through what a scalable offer actually is and why it matters. We’re not talking about theory. We’re talking about the difference between staying at capacity and building something that can run without you.

    I’ve helped clients make this shift again and again. It’s one of the most important changes you can make if you want to lead a business that supports your life and has even MORE IMPACT!
