Today I’m chatting with the incredible Jana Boyko, co-creator of The Bedside Business Plan—a guided journal that’s helped over 10,000 entrepreneurs rethink how they approach starting and growing a business. We talk about the power of combining strategy with mindfulness, how entrepreneurship is as much a personal growth journey as a professional one, and why you should always begin your business journey by checking in with you. This one’s part inspiration, part practical roadmap, and all heart.

Whether you’re just thinking about launching or you’ve been in business for years, Jana’s approach will have you rethinking how to build something that feels as good as it performs.

Key topics covered:

  • The story behind The Bedside Business Plan and why Jana turned her coaching questions into a tangible journal
  • Why most business plans don’t work—and how guided prompts help you ask (and answer) the right questions
  • How your mindset, fears, and identity shifts affect your business more than any tactical checklist ever will
  • Why seasoned entrepreneurs are returning to basics with this journal (and what that says about what we miss early on)
  • Jana’s behind-the-scenes process—from duct-taped prototypes to getting stocked at Indigo!
  • A sneak peek at her next journal, Employee to Entrepreneur, and how it supports a sustainable and empowered transition out of 9–5 life
