Simple Business Dream Life

What have you been wanting for months that you haven’t asked for yet? It might be a client, a collaboration, a spot on someone’s podcast, a seat in a room you’ve been eyeing up, a higher price or a bit of help. And I’d bet you’ve already got the reasons lined up for why now isn’t the right time. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I’m talking about the gap between wanting something and a...

2026 isn’t finished yet. I know the Christmas adverts are on and half your diary looks like a write off. But there are still weeks left of this year, and a lot of business owners are mentally clocking off right now, then wondering in January why they’re starting from a standing start again. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I’m talking about how to finish 2026 without giving up on it,...

On December 7th I will be hosting my final Growth Event. And today I want to tell you the real story behind that decision. Because it goes a lot deeper than simply deciding to stop running an event. And I think there’s something in it for you too. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I’m getting really honest about grief, growth and knowing when it’s time to let go of something you love....

When did you last leave an event and feel like something had genuinely shifted. Not because of what you learnt. Because of who you met. We justify going to events on the agenda. The speakers. The topics. But the content is almost always available somewhere else. What isn't available anywhere else is the room. The specific people. The conversation that happens in the break that you're sti...

My new book is out. Do Less. Grow More. And today I want to talk to you about it properly. Not in a here's my book go and buy it way. In a this is why it exists and this is who it's really for way. Because the story behind this book is not what you might expect. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm getting honest about why I rewrote the book from scratch rather than jus...

Have you ever had that feeling that something in your business just isn't quite right? Maybe everything looks good from the outside. Your business is growing, you're achieving things and you're doing everything you're supposed to be doing, but internally you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck or exhausted. That feeling could be telling you something. In this episode of Simpl...

Deep down you already know. You probably know which offer isn't working. You probably know which client isn't the right fit anymore. You probably know what you've been avoiding. You probably know what you need to stop doing. And you probably know what you really want to do next. But knowing something and actually doing something about it are two very different things. And the gap be...

In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life, I'm joined by author and entrepreneur John Spencer Williams to talk about what it really takes to stand out in an increasingly noisy and competitive world.

When did you last feel actually on top of it. Not just managing. Not just keeping up. Actually clear headed, energised and excited about what you're building. Because most business owners are carrying something they've never quite put into words. Not the to do list. Something heavier than that. Something that lives in their head permanently and never really switches off. And nobody'...

What if making more money doesn't automatically make you feel more successful? In fact, what if the more your business grows, the more your definition of success starts to change? In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life , I'm joined by someone I've admired for years, money mindset coach, bestselling author and founder of Money Bootcamp, Denise Duffield-Thomas. Denise has built...

You're showing up. You're creating content. You've got offers. You're doing all the things. And yet the sales aren't consistent. And somewhere in the back of your mind there's this nagging feeling that you're losing people. That they're finding you, maybe even liking what they see, and then just disappearing. The problem almost always comes down to the same...

You spend months building the perfect website. The funnel. The branding. The offers. All of it polished and professional and exactly right. And then you launch and nobody buys. Sound familiar. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm talking about the step most business owners skip. The one that costs them the most time, money and disappointment. And the one that when you get it righ...

Have you ever found yourself thinking: “I know exactly what I need to do…so why am I not doing it?” You know you need to show up more visibly. You know you need to raise your prices. You know you need to launch that offer. You know you need to have that conversation. And yet somehow you still find yourself hesitating, overthinking, procrastinating, or convincing yourself that now isn’t quite the r...

Ready isn't coming. It was never coming. And the sooner we make peace with that the sooner everything changes. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm getting really honest about the real cost of waiting. Not in a push harder do more kind of way. In a this is what waiting actually cost me and what jumping before I was ready actually gave me kind of way. Because you are going to...

I want to tell you about a crow. About 2 weeks ago one started showing up. Following me from room to room. On my walk. On the lamppost down the road. Sitting on the thinnest branch in the garden just watching. And when I finally worked out what it meant. Transformation. New beginnings. Something shifting. I realised this episode needed to be recorded. Because I think a lot of us are in that in bet...

Everyone says August is quiet. Most people believe them. Most people go quiet. And then they point to the quiet as proof that it's true. But what if the quiet isn't evidence that August doesn't work. What if it's just evidence that everyone stopped showing up. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm making the case for August. Not as a month to survive. As one of...

You haven't tried everything. You've tried lots of things once. And there's a big difference. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm getting really honest about one of the most common patterns I see in business owners at every level. The buying, the trying, the giving up, the moving on. And why it's costing so much more than money. This one might sting a little....

Daisy shares why constantly posting, launching and dropping li...

Trigger Warning: This episode talks about loss and grief There are moments in business where something lands differently. Not because it's new information. But because you finally hear it for yourself. That happened to me on Monday. And it made me realise I had been doing the very thing I help my clients to stop doing. Playing small. Without even knowing it. In this episode of Simple Business...

You had a brilliant month. The clients came in, the sales happened, the numbers looked good. And then the next month went quiet. And you're back in hustle mode wondering what on earth happened. Sound familiar? In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm getting into something nobody really talks about. Why your best month might actually be part of the problem. And what to do about...

You're making money but it doesn't feel how you thought it would feel at this point. Because one month is brilliant and the next is quiet. And you're working just as hard in both. Sometimes harder in the quiet ones. And no matter what you do that peaks and troughs pattern just keeps repeating. In this episode of Simple Business Dream Life I'm getting into why this keeps happeni...

There's a moment in every growing business where you look at your diary and feel something unexpected. Uncomfortable. Not because things are going wrong. But because you've grown.
