Collaborate to Accelerate: How Peer Partnerships Can Boost Your Revenue
Breadwinning Business Women with Jamila Payne
Over 300,000. That’s how many business owners are in the communities that I did workshops for to in January alone. Sounds crazy right? It’s a visibility strategy that I like to call OPP, otherwise known as other people’s people. Since I have yet to become Instagram famous, I had to figure out another way to grow my reach and impact more business owners. But then something clicked. I started thinking about how other people were growing their audiences—without all the hustle. And I realized they were doing something I wasn’t: they were collaborating. That’s when...

Overcoming Overplanning
Breadwinning Business Women with Jamila Payne
A few years ago,I had a brilliant idea for a new offer. I mapped it out in detail, brainstormed all the possibilities, and spent weeks refining it. Guess what? I never launched it. I got stuck in the overplanning cycle – tweaking, refining, and second-guessing. Sound familiar? The truth is, overplanning can feel productive, but it’s really just a sneaky form of procrastination. And it’s keeping you from the success (and revenue) you deserve. That’s why in this week’s episode of the Breadwinning Business Women podcast, we’re tackling: Overcoming Overplanning: Take Action and...

Annual business planning step-by-step
Breadwinning Business Women with Jamila Payne
Not planning annual goals last year was a big mistake. I was completely down in the dumps. I was still emotionally healing from a multi-year ill ness, and to be transparent, there was more focus on all the time that I lost than creating a bright future. Not having my annual plan in place had me feeling less focused than I normally would. This year, I was determined not to have that happen again. I spent several days during the holiday creating goals that I’m truly excited about. There was no better way that I could think to start off the year than by sharing my personal business planning...

[REPLAY] 5 Mindset Shifts to Reach $10k or more in Monthly Revenue
Breadwinning Business Women with Jamila Payne
Happy New Year! Let’s start 2025 with some real talk: Hitting $10K months isn’t about luck—it’s about mindset, belief, and bold action.

And let’s be honest, growth can feel uncomfortable. But every time you lean into that discomfort, you’re getting closer to the version of yourself who effortlessly hits those $10K months. That’s why I’m bringing back one of our most downloaded...

[REPLAY] How to Believe in Yourself and Your Business
Breadwinning Business Women with Jamila Payne
I got into a heated debate recently. A dear friend and I were having a back-and-forth discussion about what the key ingredient is that successful entrepreneurs have. She argued it was a positive mindset and I argued it is belief in oneself. While mindset is important, if you don’t think what you want to accomplish is possible you’re dead in the water. That’s why I pulled out this top downloaded episode of the Breadwinning Business podcast. It’s all about how to believe in yourself and your business. Take a listen today or while you are traveling in planes,...
