Business coaches on IG will not shut up about sales plans, strategies and funnels.

(and they have a point, that sh*t is important, but stay with me)

Maybe you've spent hours and hours planning and mapping yours out.

Then a client or two leaves and you panic and start posting 'DM me for coaching' even though you weren't planning on launching until next month.

Next thing you know, the sales plan you spent so much time on ends up lost somewhere in your Google Drive.

That's what I call losing 'Big F' focus.

You had a goal, a direction, a strategy... but something distracts you from it.

But then there's 'little F focus'.

The day to day tasks and follow through, the step by step of the things you need to do to stay aligned with your strategy.

And while my squirrel brain always struggled with these things,

in motherhood my business would be royally f*cked if I didn't know how to manage my focus.

(this is not to say that only moms struggle with focus!)

And since we need both strategy AND capacity to maintain little and big F focus if we want a business that works...

I covered focus, distraction and how to work with mom brain on this week's Building a Coaching Business in Motherhood episode...

You'll hear:

• the internal and external facets of focus
• how 'expert advice' can sometimes ruin focus and why you should be picky about who you listen to
• what you need to do to improve your capacity for focus in motherhood

This goes hand in hand with the strategy episode from last week- ​

because we can have the most incredible business strategy in the world but if we keep getting distracted, it really doesn't matter, does it?

And getting rid of squirrel brain isn't the answer, if that's even possible- I'm still squirrely as hell!

The difference is I've learned how to work WITH my squirrel brain, especially on days like today when I'm writing this email after being up nursing my son multiple times in the night.

Talk soon,
