If you crawled across the December finish line feeling like you just ran a marathon after the holidays—or if your launches and offers have been feeling heavier and conversions are down—we need to talk.

The truth is, what worked even a couple years ago isn't working anymore. The market has shifted. Buyers are more cautious, the content treadmill feels exhausting, and honestly? It's okay if you're just feeling kind of...tired.

But the thing is...many entrepreneurs are still thriving. And in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what's different about them—and what I'm updating in my own business to make 2026 feel spacious and service-focused.

I'm also sharing a big personal announcement that's driving this entire shift, and why I'm bringing back a program I sunset years ago (while retiring my beloved Mastermind...for now). This isn't about burning everything down. It's about building smarter, more specifically, and more sustainably—especially as CEO moms who need our businesses to actually work with our real lives.

What You'll Learn:

• Why some of the "traditional" strategies aren't working anymore (and what IS working)
• The #1 thing separating entrepreneurs who are thriving from those who are burning out
• Why being a generalist will make you invisible in 2026—and how to get specific without losing yourself
• The exact audit questions I used to simplify my offer suite (and why I'm sunsetting my Mastermind)
• How to build monthly recurring revenue that doesn't require you to be "on" all the time
• My exciting announcement and what it means for how I'm restructuring everything

Black Friday 2025 was... interesting. Some people crushed it. Others had their quietest year in ages. And if you're somewhere in between trying to figure out what just happened...this episode is for you.

I'm breaking down exactly what's selling right now, what people experienced from both sides of Black Friday this year, and why specificity and human connection are the only things cutting through the noise anymore. Because spoiler alert: more AI-generated content is NOT the answer.

If you're a mom entrepreneur building a business that doesn't require you 24/7, grab your coffee and let's dive into what actually matters heading into 2026.

What You'll Learn:

• Why Black Friday 2025 had such mixed results—and what that tells us about where the online business world is headed
• The specificity secret: How my client Katherine made $11K with less than 300 people on her list (and how you can do the same)
• The warm-up you can't skip: Why sales happen AFTER trust, and how to use Black Friday as a barometer (not a failure)
• Human touch is everything: Why people are craving real connection and how to bring more of yourself into your business without burning out
• What to focus on for the rest of December and 2026: The exact shifts you need to make to stand out in an increasingly automated world

Key Takeaways:

✅ Specificity wins every time. Your offer needs to be so clear that someone reads it and goes, "Oh my God, that's for me." Not "that sounds nice"--literally "I NEED this right now."

✅ You can't skip the relationship building. The people who did well on Black Friday had been nurturing their audiences for months. If you didn't pre-warm people, use this as data...not proof you're failing.

✅ People still want people. Don't automate yourself out of your business. AI can support you, but it can't replace your experience, your perspective, and your connection.

What if I told you that you could launch your first leveraged offer, make over $11K, and still show up for your kids' Christmas parties without breaking a sweat?

My client Katherine did exactly that—and she did it in December while being fully present for her five kids. No complicated challenge funnels. No showing up on camera every single day. Just a simple, stripped-back launch process that actually works for moms with actual lives.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the exact three-phase process Katherine used to launch her first course while maintaining her family traditions, making hot dinners most nights, and keeping her sanity intact. If you've been sitting on a course idea, group program, or any kind of leveraged offer but feel too overwhelmed to launch it, this one's for you.

What You'll Learn:

• Why you need a leveraged offer (even if your one-to-one business is doing fantastically well)
• The three-phase low-key launch process that works for busy moms
• How Katherine made over $11K across two launches with less than 220 people on her launch list
• Why you should NEVER create your entire program before validating it
• How to launch without sacrificing family time or your sanity
• The power of email-based launches (no daily lives required!)
• How to turn your beta launch into an evergreen funnel

Resources Mentioned:

• Built to Scale Workshop (CEO Mom Edition): Join me live on December 8th at 1:30 PM Eastern for the complete breakdown of Catherine's launch strategy, plus my 2026 planning map and scalable offer suite worksheet. Only $47 → Grab your seat here
• Katherine's Full Interview: Listen to her complete journey and mindset shifts (this was after her first launch and before her second)
