Reflecting on 2020 | My First Year Running a Multi-Six Figure Business Full Time

When I quit my full-time job as an attorney in 2019 to focus on building my online business, it was a scary step — but a necessary one.It would have been even scarier if I’d known what was to come.2020 has caused many business owners to take a step back and revisit their plans, myself included.Back in 2019, I told myself that 2020 would be my million-dollar year. I even had it written on my vision board in big letters.By June, I knew it was time to rethink my 2020 goals. I made the decision to focus on ease and sustainability, rather than aggressive growth. This kept me aligned with my new word of the year, but also with the type of business and life that I wanted to create.During this time of chaos and uncertainty, my plans for my business have actually solidified, and I’ve discovered a new balance, which is more important to me right now than hitting that 7-figure mark.Knowing WHY you want to hit your goals is the key to knowing the right goals you should be working toward. Are your current goals in alignment with your overarching vision? Let’s dig into it!In this episode, you’ll discover:The lessons I learned while building a business during a pandemicHow to figure out whether you should be working toward a 6- or 7- figure business The simple, three step mantra that keeps me moving in alignment with my deeper goals“I treat my business the same way I have always treated any other thing I’ve done to make money… I want my work to be fulfilling, but I’ve got to love it.”—  Tasha CochranHighlights:‌ ‌01:19  Reflecting on pandemic entrepreneurship     05:30  The COVID pivot  07:48  Remember your biggest priorities  10:11  Should a million-dollar business be your goal?  13:53  2021: the year of Wealth Life Balance  17:00  Send your questions!   Links:‌ ‌Ascend Incubatorhttps://onebighappylife.com/coachingPlease remember to subscribe, rate, and review!

Are you ready to live your life beyond the 9-5? Do you want to do work that lights you up, while wearing your comfiest pants… and get paid well to do it? The real talk, practical tips, and business strategies I’ll be sharing in the More Than Just Business podcast will help you get there. I’m Scarlett Cochran, a former lawyer turned entrepreneur. I left a six-figure job doing work that I loved, because the future I saw ahead of me didn’t excite me. I wanted freedom, flexibility, and time with my family. In just two years I built a multi-six figure online business (while raising two kids and working my corporate day job) that allowed me to quit the 9-5, take back control of my schedule and pay myself a six-figure salary on my terms. Yes, that can be your life! And I'm going to show you how.
