Solopreneurs, Your GPS Needs a Destination First

Do you need a mission statement as a solopreneur? Carly and Joe finally found something they disagree on, and it turns into one of the most useful conversations they have had.

Joe makes the case that most business mission statements are useless. They get designed by committee, framed on a wall, and never looked at again. Carly agrees on the business side but pushes back hard on the personal side. She believes every solopreneur needs a life first mission statement, one that answers how you want to spend your days, who you want to be present for, and what enough actually looks like.

In this episode you will hear Joe's six questions for thinking through your life mission, Carly's three part approach built around naming your non negotiables, describing your ideal Tuesday, and defining success that does not need an audience. They also share a challenge to help you find one commitment that violates your ideal life and decide what to do about it this week.

If you have ever felt your business slowly taking over your life, this one is for you.
