Most of us feel behind.
Behind in numbers of followers... or income... or simply clarity about our business strategy and what we should be doing on a typical Tuesday afternoon when you're staring at your to-do list and nothing feels like the right priority.
If that resonates, you're not alone. It's a common feeling among soulpreneurs!
But let's reframe this—because feeling behind isn't helpful. It keeps us stuck in comparison and self-judgment, which drains the very energy we need to move forward.

I know that might sound like a platitude, but I mean it practically. Wherever you are in your business journey, that's your starting point. And a clear starting point is exactly what you need to move forward with focus instead of overwhelm.
The problem isn't that you're behind. The problem is that most business advice doesn't account for where you actually are. It throws strategies at you without helping you understand which ones fit your current situation.
That's what we're going to fix.

Let's take a look at that map...
