Ep: 168 - When You Trust Your Business Model, Everything Gets Easier
Fri Feb 06 2026
There comes a moment in every entrepreneur’s journey when the chaos has to stop.
When you realise that constantly tweaking, chasing, reacting, and second-guessing is a clear sign that you need to stop, reflect and make changes to how you've been operating.
In this episode, Michelle Hext explores the profound shift from operating as an emotional entrepreneur to becoming a mature CEO.
Mature entrepreneurs are clear-headed, strategic and create distance between themselves and the brand, so there is no longer the emotional entanglement that often causes reactivity.
You’ll learn why confidence in your business model changes everything, how over-identifying with your business keeps you stuck in volatility, and why simplifying your model and strengthening your systems is the fastest path to sustainable success.
This is a conversation about leadership, emotional neutrality, and the discipline required to build a business that performs well, whether you feel confident on a given day or not.
If you’re ready to stop spinning and start operating with certainty, this episode will show you what that shift truly looks like.
Enjoy!
