RS377 - A simpler business: clarity, coherence and capacity
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If the start of the year is already showing you what feels easy — and what feels heavy or out of step — this episode will help you make sense of what you’re seeing. Anna explores why the landscape feels noisier, why capacity matters more than ever, and how a simpler, more coherent business structure can create clarity, stronger boundaries, and easier demand. A noisy market and more discerning buyers make coherence more valuable than ever. Capacity is a key constraint — piling on productivity (or AI content) often adds complexity. The friction you feel is usually architectural,...

RS376 - Business redesign: when optimisation isn't enough
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If you’ve been optimising for months but the day-to-day still feels heavy, this episode will help you spot when you need business redesign — not more effort. Anna unpacks optimisation vs redesign and shares how to step back and rethink the architecture of your business, with an invitation to her Solopreneur OS workshop on Tuesday 13 January 2026. Optimisation is useful — but only when the underlying business architecture still fits. Repeating the same problems (positioning, offers, capacity) is often a redesign signal, not a discipline problem. Redesign starts with deeper questions...

RS375 - Business model alignment: why success feels heavy
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If your business looks successful on paper but feels heavier than it should, this episode is for you. Anna shares a high-level way to think about business model alignment so you can identify what’s out of sync and rebuild for the next season. Friction in a “working” business is often structural misalignment, not a motivation problem. As you evolve, your offers, messaging and delivery can stay stuck in an earlier version of you. Values and capacity aren’t nice-to-haves — they’re practical design constraints that protect quality and wellbeing. A coherent structure reduces the...

RS374 - Outgrowing your business model: the 4Rs framework
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If your business is working objectively but feels tighter or heavier on the inside, you may be operating inside a model that’s past its natural life cycle. Anna unpacks why “optimising the old” won’t solve deeper friction, and shares a practical 4Rs framework to recognise the signals, review the scripts keeping you stuck, redesign the blueprint, and rebuild in a way that fits who you are now. Key takeaways: Outgrowing your business model is a normal stage: business structures have life cycles, and misalignment is often a signal of growth. If the business only works when you...

RS373 - Design rest into your business with seasonal business rhythm
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If the holiday season highlights what feels heavy or unsustainable in your work, this episode will help you use seasonal business rhythm to design rest into your business — not as a reward, but as a foundation. Key takeaways Seasonal business rhythm helps you stop fighting your energy and start designing around it — so your business can support you year-round. Rest becomes a powerful diagnostic: when you slow down, you can finally see what’s demanding, resistant, or no longer sustainable. “Being busy” isn’t the same as moving forward — and filling every gap with doing keeps...

Anna introduces a new way of thinking about how your business works behind the scenes - and what it takes to design your business operating system for 2026.

Key takeaways:
- The Market Has Shifted—But Opportunity Remains
The economic landscape is more demanding, with budget cuts and changing priorities making it harder to attract attention. However, clients are still investing—just more selectively, and with a focus on immediate, tangible results. - Three Reasons You’re Not Booked Out
-
Unclear or Uncompelling Offers: Vague, long-term, or “fluffy” messaging doesn’t resonate in a risk-averse market. Offers need to address urgent, concrete business needs.
-
Positioning That Undersells You: Many experts, especially women, downplay their expertise instead of confidently owning their experience and value.
-
Visibility That Lacks Consistency and Focus: Sporadic or unfocused marketing often leads to getting lost in the noise. Clear, intentional pathways to your ideal clients are essential.
-
- Mission vs. Messaging: What Sells Now
Lead with what your client needs—typically profit, productivity or specific outcomes—then weave in your bigger mission once you’ve opened the door. - Future-Proofing Your Business
Stop accepting ‘just any client’ out of necessity. Position yourself for the work (and clients) you truly want, and start building that reputation now for real, lasting growth.
