I wasn’t planning to record this episode.
Actually, I wasn’t planning to do much of anything last week.
Because life had other plans.
My partner, Lucas, was hospitalized for 8 days with bilateral mycoplasma pneumonia. His oxygen levels dropped dangerously low. He was weak. Scared. And I was right there beside him — canceling calls, putting my business on hold, and postponing a long-awaited girls’ trip to Vegas.
I didn’t think twice.
Because when the people you love need you, you go.
But here’s the part I’m most grateful for — and also the part I need every entrepreneur to hear:
My business didn’t fall apart.
In fact, it ran without me.
Emails still went out.
Clients were still supported.
Sales continued to come in.
And everything kept moving, even though I wasn’t.
And that wasn’t luck.
It was intentional business design.
