Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I’m your host, Philippa Channer, and today we’re diving into a topic that strikes at the very heart of business growth and sustainability—identifying the core tasks that truly drive your business forward.
As entrepreneurs, it’s so easy to get swept up in busy work—answering emails, tweaking your website, getting caught in the social scroll—but the real question is: are those tasks actually pushing your business toward growth and profitability?
