Ep #117 - Building A Tiny But Mighty Business With Lydia Lee

This one’s special. I got to sit down with my mentor and dear friend Lydia Lee (aka Mama Bear) for a heart-to-heart on building businesses that actually feel good to run. Lydia’s the genius behind the “Tiny but Mighty” business concept, and she’s living proof that you don’t need a massive empire to create massive impact.

We talk about her own journey from corporate burnout (hello, golden handcuffs) to becoming the coach who helps entrepreneurs design “life-first” businesses. Ones that honour your sweet spot, your sanity, and your soul. Along the way, we unpack the myths of success, why willingness is the real muscle you need to flex, and how to know when you’ve reached enough.

If you’ve ever wondered how to balance profit with peace, clients with creativity, and ambition with actual joy, this conversation is going to light you up. Think of it as a roadmap for creating a business that feels right-sized, deeply aligned, and unapologetically yours.

What we got into:

• Lydia’s full-circle journey from corporate burnout to “Screw the Cubicle” queen
• Why she believes in building Tiny but Mighty businesses that pack impact without the overwhelm
• The underrated power of patience, timing, and the “willingness muscle”
• How to balance stability with creativity (and why both matter)
• Redefining success: enoughness, joy, and life beyond the spreadsheet
• Streamlining offers, simplifying focus, and designing a business that feels good to run
• The hidden perks of constraints, boundaries, and saying no
• Building businesses that honour your energy, your relationships, and your curiosity
• The future of work, human connection, and creating a community-centric life

Tune in now and get inspired to build a business that works for your life, not the other way around.
