How Small Wins Build Big Momentum

Sometimes, business just feels stuck. The to-do list is long, the energy is low, and it’s hard to get moving. In this episode, I talk about momentum and how to build it, not by tackling everything at once but by starting small.

Drawing on Jim Collins’ flywheel effect, I share why picking just one or two quick wins can create confidence, spark enthusiasm, and get the whole business moving again. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or weighed down, this is the push to get going.
