In this episode, I share the exact mindset and strategy I use when setting goals, and how you can set yourself up to scale in 2026 and beyond.

This audio was taken from our BIG Brand Ventures Virtual Community weekly call, where I walked through the SMART goal framework, how to achieve revenue milestones, and why accountability and action are crucial.

I also open up about what it really takes to stay focused for the long haul, what sacrifices I made to hit personal and business goals this year, and how you can get clear on what matters most heading into the new year!
