Michelle shares the process of conducting a mini CEO retreat, offering a framework for small business owners to reset their vision, values, and goals to realign their business with their deepest aspirations.
• Taking intentional time to pause and reflect on what's working and what's not in both business and personal life
• Creating a values-based decision-making framework that takes the guesswork out of business choices
• Using the "BESTIE" values acronym: Bravery, Empathy, Simplicity, Trust, Integrity, and Energy
• Setting grace-filled goals rather than guilt-based ones driven by comparison or "shoulds"
• Balancing minimum goals (consistency-focused) with stretch goals (possibility-focused)
• Developing a clear 5-year vision, 3-year targets, and 1-year goals that align with your values
• Recognizing the different seasons of business: building, resting, pivoting, and growing
• Introducing the Bestie Boardrooms - weekly mastermind groups for accountability and support
