We're halfway through 2025 - time for your most important business review yet. While most entrepreneurs focus on improving their numbers, the real breakthrough comes from upgrading the CEO within themselves first.

Maggie shares why your first six months don't determine your success and reveals the one question that can transform your second half.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
• Why being "behind" on your 2025 goals might actually be an advantage
• The difference between reviewing your business vs. reviewing yourself as a leader
• How to identify the leadership gap between where you are and where you need to be
• Why pivots happen faster when you own your own business
• The CEO-level question that changes everything: "Who were you vs. who do you need to become?"

ACTIONABLE STEPS:

1. Pause and reflect: Who were you as a leader in the first 6 months?
2. Define: Who do you need to be in the second half to hit your goals?
3. Identify the gaps between these two versions of yourself
4. Choose ONE leadership behavior to implement starting tomorrow
