Building a Business Rebuilds You

Episode #141

In this deeply personal episode of Everything Early Childhood, host Leeza Browne shares a conversation she almost talked herself out of recording.

As a coach, mentor and leader in the Early Childhood sector, Leeza admits she questioned whether sharing the fear, doubt and messy parts of business might somehow take away from her credibility.

But then she realised she was doing exactly what she sees leaders do all the time.

When we don't feel like we're nailing it, we retreat.

We go quiet. We protect ourselves. We wait until we've figured it all out before we let anyone see that it was hard.

In Building a Business Rebuilds You, Leeza opens up about the messy middle of building a business and being a leader. The hard decisions that can still hurt even when you know they're right.

The moments of doubt that can exist alongside complete clarity. The seasons where you know better but still don't quite get it right. Because maybe growth isn't about never wobbling.

Maybe we just get better at finding our way back.

This episode is a reminder that you can know what you're doing and still find it hard. You can be proud and tired. Clear and scared. Grateful and overwhelmed.

All of those things can be true.

And maybe when things feel uncomfortable, we don't need to retreat.

Maybe we need to lean in, say it out loud and give someone else the chance to say...

Me too. 💗
