Seven Figure Consultant with Jessica Fearnley

In this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, I tackle one of the misconceptions that I hear from B2B consultants all the time! They want to get to seven figures, but they also love the idea of a lifestyle business - and they think they can’t have both. I talk about how it’s possible to create a ‘seven-figure lifestyle business’ by offering high-ticket consulting packages, streamlining operations, and pricing based on expertise - not hours.  I also introduce my VIP Strategy Intensive, designed to help consultants craft $100,000 offers and a clear revenue map.

In this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, originally broadcast in September 2023, I dive into the topic of returning to work after a break. 

It’s so important to take time off so that we can recharge and avoid burnout, especially as high achieving, ambitious women consultants and thought leaders, but how can we smoothly transition back into work mode

In this episode I share some key strategies to help you prepare before your vacation and how to get your brain back when you return to work, including the value of checking in with yourself and prioritizing self-care during this transition period to regain your natural energy, maximize your productivity and enjoy jumping back into your consulting business.

Quotes:

“We get into the rhythm of work, leads, sales delivery, onboarding, offboarding, and it can suddenly actually feel quite stark to jump out of the business to take a vacation. When we get back, suddenly things feel less certain. Do I really post on LinkedIn that many times a week? What will I say at that meeting? How do I jump back on the horse now that I’ve tumbled off? If you’ve taken a break this summer and you’re feeling the brain fog this week, this episode is for you.”

“One of the key temptations for entrepreneurs is to be always on. It’s so great for us to have that digital detox, to break the patterns that we spend a lot of our weeks wrapped up in online.”

“Take that vacation, have that day off, block off that week. We get so blind to the habits that we’re falling into when we never break them. How many times have you come back with fresh eyes after some time out and thought, ‘wait a minute, why are we even doing this?’”
