Struggling to get clients and grow your business? You’re not alone. Many solopreneurs feel stuck because they don’t have a clear plan to attract and connect with their dream clients—and the “charge what you’re worth” mindset may be holding you back. In this video, I’ll share a practical and cozy approach to building momentum in your business through free sessions, without burning yourself out or compromising your values.

We’ll cover:

👉 Why free sessions are a powerful tool (and how they’re not really free)

👉 A step-by-step framework to make your sessions impactful and worthwhile

👉 How to shift your mindset to see these as investments, not giveaways

👉 Personal stories and real examples of what works—and what doesn’t

👉 The exact strategy to turn conversations into paying clients, referrals, and new opportunities

By the end of this video, you’ll have a clear roadmap to create connection, build trust, and grow your business in a way that feels aligned, sustainable, and so you.

It can be hard to take time off as a solopreneur. And, as we come towards the end of the year, I know we are ALL thinking about the end of the year and hopefully taking a break. But it can also bring stress of getting more done to "finish the year strong" or if your business can even survive a few weeks with you not working.

Let's talk about how you can set yourself up so you can take time off without your business coming to a complete stand still.
