  • Mastering Advice: How to Filter Business Guidance with Jane Tweedy

    Mastering Advice: How to Filter Business Guidance with Jane Tweedy
    Jan 20 2026
    We're surrounded by advice in business - Facebook groups, friends, family, social media, coaches, YouTube, and even AI. But how do you know what advice to actually take on board? In this episode of the Business Owners Podcast, Linda Reed-Enever sits down with experienced business coach and trainer Jane Tweedy to explore how to filter through the noise and focus on guidance that aligns with your business goals. Having personally supported over 2000 small business owners and with more than a decade of experience in coaching, training, and SEO strategy, Jane brings a powerful mix of practicality, honesty, and lived wisdom. Together, she and Linda break down how to tell the difference between helpful insights and harmful distractions, and how to stay focused in a world that's always telling you to "do more". Whether you're navigating conflicting advice, questioning a new strategy, or just feeling overwhelmed by input, this episode is packed with tools to help you take back control. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why not all advice is created equal From well-meaning friends to random SEO "experts", Jane unpacks the danger of listening to people who don't understand your business or your goals. The MASTER Framework Jane shares her MASTER framework, Mindset, Aim, Strategy, Tactics, Execution, and Review, to help business owners stay grounded and filter advice through a smart, structured lens. Understanding who to trust Linda and Jane explore how to assess whether an advisor, coach, or even an AI tool is actually suitable for your needs, and how to tell if someone's giving advice from experience or from fear. Setting boundaries with clients and offerings Jane and Linda reflect on real-world stories from their own businesses, showing how over-giving (and not sticking to boundaries) can lead to burnout, misalignment, and confusion about your value. How entrepreneurial mindsets and ADHD traits intersect Jane explains how the traits that make entrepreneurs thrive - curiosity, fast thinking, and creativity - can also cause overwhelm and constant course-changing without a plan. Finding your niche without boxing yourself in From seasonal pivots to changing customer needs, Jane shares how to embrace flexibility in your niche while still speaking directly to your ideal clients. Jane's Advice for Business Owners Mindset matters: If you don't believe in yourself, it's hard for anyone else to. Work on your internal dialogue as much as your external strategy. Check the source: Don't take advice from people who haven't walked in your shoes, especially when it comes to business strategy, legal, or financial decisions. Don't blindly follow trends: Whether it's a YouTube tip, Facebook group comment, or AI-generated idea, filter it through your business goals and reality. Know your boundaries: Be clear about what each level of your offering includes. Stop giving VIP service to budget clients. Slow down to speed up: Make time to review your strategy, goals, and systems instead of constantly reacting to what's trending. Key Takeaway You don't need to take on every piece of advice, only the guidance that aligns with your goals, values, and current stage of business. Stay true to what you're building, and don't let someone else's limiting beliefs steer your decisions. Action Step Review the last 5 pieces of advice you received. Ask yourself: Does this align with my goals right now? Is the source credible and relevant to my business? Am I ready to implement it, or am I just feeling pressured? Use Jane's MASTER framework to help you decide whether to act, pause, or let it go. Connect with Jane Tweedy: Website LinkedIn Ready to Get Support?

  • Outsmarting Challenges in Business with Kirsten Graham

    Outsmarting Challenges in Business with Kirsten Graham
    Nov 4 2025
    When you're doing everything in your business, you're not doing the work that truly matters. In this episode of The Business Owners Podcast, Clive Enever sits down with Kirsten Graham, co-founder of Six Figure Business Coaching, to unpack how outsourcing and the right support systems can transform the way you grow. Kirsten shares her journey from mortgage broking to building a VA matching service that helps entrepreneurs stay in their zone of genius, doing the work they love, while expert virtual assistants take care of the rest. This conversation offers a deep dive into why business owners often struggle with delegation, how to shift into the mindset of a real CEO, and the steps you can take to set up systems that support consistent growth and freedom. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why Support Beats Burnout Most entrepreneurs start out wearing all the hats, but that doesn't mean you should. Kirsten shares how hiring support early, even before you feel "ready", can prevent overwhelm and help you scale faster. Delegation Is a Skill, Not a Trait If you've ever said "I just can't delegate", Kirsten has news for you. She explains why delegation is a learnable business skill, and how even perfectionists can master it with structure and support. From Chaos to Clarity with Systems Discover how Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and clear expectations set your team, and your business, up for success. Why Hiring Before You're Ready Works Waiting until you're drowning is the worst time to hire. Kirsten outlines how to hire smart and build support before you burn out. Outsource What's Not Your Zone of Genius From bookkeeping to content marketing, Kirsten highlights the kinds of tasks you should be offloading so you can focus on growth, service, and strategy. AI Won't Replace VAs Who Evolve Kirsten also shares her perspective on AI and how the best virtual assistants will embrace tech to deliver even more value, not be replaced by it. Kirsten Graham's Advice for Business Owners - Waiting until you're underwater makes onboarding harder. Start with part-time help early. - If you're spending hours learning tasks you'll never master or enjoy, outsource them. - If it's good enough and gets the outcome, that's success. - Your business needs to reflect your goals, not someone else's template. - The best VAs will evolve and add even more value by integrating new tools. - If a task isn't revenue-generating or core to your zone of genius, it shouldn't sit on your to-do list.

  • Clear and Simple Strategies for Business Growth

    Clear and Simple Strategies for Business Growth
    Oct 28 2025
    Have you ever walked out of a strategy session feeling more confused than when you started? You're not alone. Business strategy can often seem complicated, but the truth is, real strategy is about clarity, and clarity is simple. Clive Enever breaks down how to move from strategy overwhelm to strategic momentum. He explains why simplicity drives better decisions, faster progress, and sustainable growth, and shares a practical three-step framework to help you refine your strategy without starting from scratch. The Power of Simplicity The most successful businesses aren't the most complex, they're the clearest. When your strategy is simple, you make smarter decisions, take faster action, and create systems that scale without stress. Complexity might look clever, but simplicity is what actually builds momentum. A 3-Step Framework for Business Clarity Revisit Your Purpose Every effective strategy starts with understanding why your business exists. It's not just about making money, but delivering a result for a specific client. Write your purpose in one clear sentence (around 14–18 words). If it takes a paragraph, it's not clear enough. Clarity here shapes every decision that follows. Refine Your Priorities There's always more to do in business, but not everything needs to be done. Focus on the one goal that will move your business forward in the next 90 days. Build your activity around that single objective and strip away the rest. Simplicity here creates focus, and focus creates results. Create Simple Systems Strategy only works when it's executed. Identify the repeatable steps that deliver your desired outcomes and document them. Delegate where possible, automate where practical, and ensure every process is easy to explain. If it's too complex, it won't stick. Put It Into Action Set aside 30 minutes with no meetings, no distractions, just you and your strategy. Ask yourself three questions: - What is my business really here to do? - What's my one priority for the next 90 days? - What simple systems will support that? Write your answers down and revisit them often. With clarity and consistency, you'll go further with a lot less stress. Why Simplicity Wins Every Time Growth comes from clear thinking and consistent action. By refining, not rebuilding, your strategy, you'll make better decisions, lead with confidence, and stay aligned with what truly matters in your business.
