What defining moments or milestones have happened to you along the way towards your current level of success? Mandi Ellefson shares her story as she discusses milestones that people typically experience in their business journey, and how to identify and address common challenges.


Key Ideas:

  1. Very few business women ever reach 7 figures in their company. 
  2. “Whenever there's a certain goal that we are shooting for, the gap [between it and us] personifies itself as something external, but the biggest reason we don’t have it is because we are not being the person who can actually have that yet.” Mandi talks about how she used to allow the limiting belief that she couldn’t be successful professionally and have a happy marriage affect her personal life, and how she overcame it.
  3. The build-up and breakthrough cycle in business shows up as recurring patterns of frustration or challenges you can’t seem to beat, but they’re actually lessons in disguise. As soon as you find the lesson and learn it, you shift into a different leader and gain access to doors that were previously closed to you.
  4. How does the leader who works 30 to 40 hours a week show up? Mandi encourages listeners to reflect on their breakthroughs and figure out the patterns that will elevate them to becoming a hands-off CEO.
