This Week's Message...

• How my mom's bedtime mantras built the foundation for a 7-figure business
• 3 unconventional business lessons that transformed my 80-hour work week into a 16-hour success story
• The exact system I used to reduce employee turnover from 120% to just 17%

Dear Entrepreneur,

My mom never ran a business. She never wrote a business plan or worried about profit margins. But without realizing it, she gave me the exact foundation I needed to build a 7-figure business working just 16 hours a week.

And it started during my bedtime routine:

“Be independent!”

“Don’t rely on a man!”

“You can do anything you want!”

As my mother tells it, those are the mantras she poured into me as a kid as she tucked me into bed every night (I have no recollection of any of it).

But like any mantra, it’s not what your conscious mind hears, it’s what your subconscious mind stores!

And lucky for me, my mom delivered 3 of the best business lessons that only a mom could teach you!

Not a college professor, not a business guru, and definitely not a social media influencer.

Only a mom!

So, as we celebrate Mother’s Day, I wanted to share those 3 lessons with you!  

1.Be Independent!

This one is the most important to me because it gave me the courage and confidence to do things differently!  I have always beat to my own drum. Could be the only child👪, the redhead👩‍🦰 or the Scorpio♏ that added to the mix, but I have always been okay being different than everyone else.  

And this is why I was able to scale my franchise to 7+Figures in 16-hour weeks! I simply took the business in a box franchise model and then made it my own. Practically from day 1 too!

• I built an office team of Part Timers when the franchisor said to hire Full Timers.
• My HR team hired only the best and never in desperation even if we were short staffed.
• And when government agencies begging us to apply for contracts, we kindly declined and stuck to private pay.

Business Lesson: This independent mindset is exactly what we focus on in the STRUCTURE pillar of The Legacy Business System. Just like I customized my franchise model, I help you build a business model structure that honors your unique strengths while maintaining proven foundations. This is why my clients reduce their working hours by 50% within 90 days - they're not following someone else's cookie-cutter approach.

2.Choose Your Friends Wisely

Mom says I came home in the second grade crying that I had no friends and it broke her heart. I don’t remember that either, but I do remember always feeling like the 3rd wheel in my 3 person friend group in grammar school. And of course, that hurts, no matter what age you are… But its what you do about it that matters.

As I got older, I did more “research” on new friends before attaching myself to them because I knew finding your ride or die group was not easy.  To this day, I have a very small core group of girlfriends back in MA from high school & college but still have not found a group here in Florida… But I’m okay with that because I want real friends and not surface level friendships with women.

• And this was the same lesson we used in business when we hired team members! 
• My mom taught me that Retention Begins with Recruitment which means do you research first if you want them to stay long term!
• And that is how we blew the doors off the 120% industry turnover rate (yes for every 10 hires the industry lost 12, crazy I know!) and had a minimal 17% turnover in my office!

Business Lesson: This selective approach to relationships directly mirrors the SUPPORT pillar. Inside The Legacy Business School, I teach that your team is your business's lifeline. Through my 3-Part Hiring Framework, I help you build a mission-driven team that reduces your daily involvement by 60%. Just like choosing friends wisely, when you select the right team members, you create a support system that propels your business forward without constant oversight.

3.Live Your One Life!

This one was more a family mantra that came from personal experience. My mom’s mother had a stroke at age 50 and spent the next 30 years in a wheelchair and my dad’s father had a brain aneurysm at age 62 and died. They were very aware that you get one life and it should be lived!

So, my family lived it!  We took family trips to New England states (and Disney twice). We had a boat, and my dad was able to stay home during the summer with me because he was a teacher. Please note, we were not rich, my parents just focused on making the most of what we did have.

This laid a strong foundation somewhere in my brain because I ended up buying a vacant senior home care franchise territory in 2007 with absolutely no money saved!  Those first few years I spent lots of hours caring for clients when we needed the money and did not have the staff. And that is when I had a lot of deep conversations with clients.

Where they expressed their regrets in life. Remember I had a private pay business so the majority were well off or wealthy and you would think they would be happy, but most were not.

They were sad about:

• their broken relationships,
• missed adventures and
• bad health mostly because they focused on making money and not living their life!

Business Lesson: This life-first approach is why SYSTEMS and STREAMLINE are crucial pillars in The Legacy Business System. We don't just create random processes - we build systems that support your dream lifestyle. My streamlining methodology helps you eliminate 80% of unnecessary tasks that keep you working IN your business instead of ON it. This is how my clients create businesses that serve their lives, not consume them.

Just like my mom's bedtime mantras shaped my success (Thanks Mom🥰), these four pillars - Structure, Systems, Support, and Streamline - work together to transform your 6-figure business into a scalable operation that runs without your constant presence. Inside The Legacy Business School, I'll help you implement these pillars in just 90 days, so you can finally move from the exhausting Grow Phase to the profitable Scale Phase.
