Celi Arias on Right-Sizing Your Business for the Life You Truly Want

 
 

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Celi Arias for a deeply real conversation about what it takes to build a healthy, sustainable business in a world that’s constantly selling you a formula. Celi and I talk about the urgency of this moment- how fast technology is moving, how easy it is to get swept up in the “quick win” hype- and why learning the actual rules of business can be one of the most regulating, empowering things you ever do.

We dig into right-sizing your business around the life you want, the difference between borrowed strategies and aligned strategy, and the sneaky ways self-judgment keeps entrepreneurs stuck, especially when you’re trying to figure out something new and convincing yourself you “should” already know how to do it. Celi shares her journey from scrappy, immigrant entrepreneurship to building a framework (and software) designed to help people succeed without copy-pasting someone else’s blueprint, and we close with an edgy question that will help you identify the “one thing” in your business you’re afraid to change… and why that might be the exact place your next level is hiding.

I can’t wait for you to listen.
