Episode 277 | Bonus Ep! The Business Advice I Share Most Often With My Mentees

Mar 17, 2026

Why do the same challenges keep appearing for women building businesses… no matter the industry, stage or personality?

After eight years mentoring female founders, and working with thousands of women through retreats, programs and private mentoring, I’ve started to notice something pretty striking.

The businesses may be very different. The women themselves certainly are. Yet the same patterns tend to surface again and again.

Certain conversations repeat and certain reminders land at exactly the moment a founder needs to hear them. They are often deceptively simple ideas, but they have a way of shifting how a woman leads her business almost immediately.

In this bonus episode, I’m sharing a handful of the advice I share most often with my mentees.

These are nuggets drawn directly from years of mentoring women as they navigate the realities of building and scaling their companies. They span leadership, personal standards, and the often overlooked role that energy, capacity and self-leadership play in sustainable growth.

Because while strategy matters, the way a woman leads herself is what really shapes the trajectory of her business.

If this conversation resonates with you, it will also give you a sense of the philosophy behind my Bold Darling Mastermind. 

Inside Bold Darling, we go much deeper into this work, supporting women to implement these principles within their businesses in a way that is strategic, sustainable and expansive.

Doors are open until midnight Thursday 26th March. Visit bolddarling.com to explore.
