Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I’m your host, Philippa Channer, and today we’re kicking off a brand-new series for August that’s all about one of the most overlooked but powerful keys to business success—your resources.
Whether you’re a solopreneur or leading a growing team, understanding your business’s essential resources is vital for building something sustainable and scalable. In this episode, we’ll explore the three key categories of resources—human, financial, and operational—and how each plays a role in fueling your growth journey. Plus, I’ll walk you through practical exercises to help you audit what you already have and what you still need to grow with intention.

(01:00) Understanding Business Resources Beyond Money
Money isn’t the only lifeblood of your business. I introduce the three major categories of essential resources and why a well-rounded resource strategy matters more than ever.
💡 Action Step: Start thinking about what categories you rely on most—and which may need more attention.
(02:00) Category 1: Human Resources
Your people are your power. This includes paid help, collaborators, mentors, and even your own time and energy. Whether you’re working solo or with a team, the people around you make or break your momentum.
✨ Action Step: Make a list of everyone currently supporting your business—and identify one key role you still need to fill.
(03:00) Category 2: Financial Resources
We talk cash flow, credit, and capital—what you earn, save, invest, or borrow. Managing finances with intention allows you to hire help, upgrade tools, and invest in your own growth.
💰 Action Step: Review your last 30 days of income and expenses. Where can you be more intentional, and what financial support would fuel your next phase?
(04:00) Category 3: Physical & Digital Resources
From your CRM to your content templates and even your home office setup—these are the engines that keep your business running. Are your systems helping you work smarter or just adding noise?
🛠️ Action Step: Audit your top five tools. Are they simplifying your workflow or making things more complicated?
(05:00) Final Thoughts & Invitation to Join the Community
You already have more at your disposal than you may realize. This episode invites you to look inward, be honest, and get strategic with the incredible resources you already possess. And remember, you don’t have to do it alone.
