Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I’m your host, Philippa Channer, and I’m so glad you’re joining me during this beautiful, busy Christmas week. I hope you’re finding space to rest, reflect, and hold close what matters most—faith, family, laughter, and stillness.
In the spirit of year-end reflection, today’s episode is about a shift that will change everything for you as a solopreneur: long-term vision and strategy. You might be a one-woman powerhouse right now, but your impact is CEO-level—and that means thinking not just about next week’s to-dos, but about what you’re building for years to come.
In this episode, I’ll walk you through a practical, soulful process to:
- Envision your 10-year dream—personally and professionally
- Break that vision down into a 3-year and 1-year roadmap
- Align your marketing and offers with where you’re headed
- Make strategic planning a consistent habit
- Stay flexible while staying focused
Whether you’re preparing for a big 2026 or simply want to enter the new year with intentionality, this episode will help you dream forward, plan smarter, and lead like the CEO you already are.
⏱ Timestamps & Segments
(00:00) Christmas Week Reflections & Setting the Stage
This is the perfect time to rest, reset, and zoom out from the day-to-day. I share why this week matters so much for strategic reflection.
(01:00) A Solopreneur’s Guide to Long-Term Vision
Most solopreneurs are focused on getting through the week—but long-term strategy is what builds legacy. Let’s talk about how to cast that bigger vision.
(02:00) Casting Your 10-Year Vision
Imagine the life you want to live, the clients you want to serve, the income you want to generate, and the business model you want to embody.
Action Step: Close your eyes and visualize the future you—then write it all down. See it, believe it, build it.
(03:30) Breaking It Into 3-Year & 1-Year Milestones
Your vision becomes a strategy when you break it into clear, time-bound goals.
Action Step: Define one 3-year milestone and one 1-year goal that align with your long-term vision.
(04:30) Aligning Your Offers and Content
Make sure your services and marketing are designed for the business you’re becoming, not just the one you have now.
Action Step: Audit your current offers and content strategy—ask yourself: “Is this building my future brand?”
(05:30) Make Strategic Planning a Habit
CEOs don’t wait for December to review goals—they build strategy check-ins into their calendar.
Action Step: Schedule monthly reflections, quarterly reviews, and an annual retreat (even if it’s just you and a journal).
(06:30) Stay Flexible and Evolve with Purpose
Your long-term vision is a compass, not a contract. Let it grow with you.
Action Step: Revisit and revise your vision quarterly so it continues to reflect your growth and direction.
