RS379 – The four-hour workday strategy to grow in less time
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If your workdays are constrained by school hours, health, or simply how you want to live, a four-hour workday isn’t indulgent — it’s a smart business strategy. In this episode, Anna shares how to protect your best thinking time, simplify what doesn’t matter, and design a business model that works inside real life. A four-hour workday forces clarity: you protect deep work and stop low-value tasks getting to hide in “busy”. If your business only works when you overwork, it’s a business model issue — not a discipline issue. Time caps reveal what’s unviable fast: pricing,...

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...

Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If you’re craving a more intentional, streamlined and sustainable way to run your business next year, this episode is for you. 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.

Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
If your content has stopped landing, leads feel slower, or business just feels heavier than it used to, you’re not alone.

AI raised the bar: With content creation easier than ever, your differentiation now comes from clarity of message and point of view. Sales cycles slowed:...

RS369 - Compassionate leadership for a more human workplace with Nigel Kilpatrick
Reimagining Success® with Anna Lundberg
What if the biggest barrier to thriving at work isn’t performance - but the way we lead? In this episode, Anna speaks with Nigel Kilpatrick, co-founder of The Compassion Exchange, about his dramatic journey from toxic leadership habits to human-centred, compassionate leadership. It’s an honest, hard-hitting look at why old models of authority are failing - and what truly creates change.

From toxic...
info_outlineAre you resisting structure in your business because you’re craving freedom, creativity, and flexibility? In this episode, Anna Lundberg debunks the myth that structure stifles creativity and explains how the right systems actually give you more space to breathe, more focus, and more joy in your work. Tune in if you’re tired of juggling everything yourself and want your business to run more smoothly - without losing the freedom you left corporate to find.
Key takeaways:
-
Structure = Freedom
Loose schedules feel freeing, but lack of structure can lead to decision fatigue, inconsistent income, marketing chaos, and, eventually, burnout. Simple systems set you free by eliminating wasted energy and providing consistency. -
The Cost of Chaos
Not having systems actually keeps you stuck—leading to sporadic visibility, inconsistent clients, and being the bottleneck in your business. Professional, reliable processes attract high-calibre clients. -
Simple Systems to Set Up
You don’t need complicated tech to start—simple, manual systems can transform your workflow. Anna recommends project management tools, onboarding/offboarding templates, streamlined invoicing, and content workflows. -
Start Small & Build as You Grow
You can add structure bit by bit. Start by documenting repetitive tasks, creating templates, and introducing basic automation when you’re ready. This frees up more time for high-value work and creativity. -
Delegation & Boundaries Matter
Use systems to delegate effectively (even recording your workflow for assistants or AI to follow!) and to reinforce boundaries—such as set working hours and strategic planning time.
