The Cash Flow Contractor

We all have rhythms whether they’re intentional or not. And a lot of us have rhythms that we created years or even decades ago that we still abide by – and for what reason? In this episode, we’re challenging you to question your rhythms. Ask yourself, “are my work rhythms valuable and are they purposeful?” When you use rhythms the correct way in business, you bring clarity and productivity to your work day that didn’t exist before. So what are you waiting for? Listen to this deep dive to get one step closer to achieving those long-term goals in the new year.

In our final episode of the year, we’re doing something a little different. We’re basing this deep dive around a question one of our listeners sent in via email! They asked about pricing – specifically, how to navigate making your own prices when inflation and other conundrums hit. We felt inspired to break down the answer to this question since it’s currently a dilemma that ALL contractors are having. Listen to the last episode of 2021 to talk pricing and other essentials you should have straightened out before entering the new year.

“Less stress, more time, more money” – that’s our motto that you hear every episode, right? In this short episode, we’re going to be focusing on how to handle the stress, both good and bad. To put it simply, the bad stress, which we call “blisters,” and the good stress, “calluses,” are never going to be eliminated fully from your day-to-day. Why? Well, the blisters inhibit and hinder you from performing at your best, but a callus will help you develop the ability to handle all future stressors that come your way. To learn how to reduce blisters and form more calluses in your business, listen to our short episode now!

The exact thing that’s holding you back could also be yourself! Learn how to make decisions that create a forward momentum in your business by listening to our episode and leaving whatever may be holding you hostage at the door.
