The #1 Thing Preventing You From Scaling and How to Fix It
What is the number one thing that is preventing you from scaling? I have another Instagram Live I recently did and this time, and to help me answer this question I brought on our head of systems, Katy Widrick. As you’ll hear, usually the number one thing that's preventing us from scaling is ourselves, and if I’m being completely honest, this is something that I know all too well.
Katy and I get to work not only inside of our company, but we get to see inside a lot of other businesses every single week. So in this episode, we wanted to have a very real conversation on how you can get out of your own way. As we say inside of our company Elevate, we have an entire team, and we got you. So, if what you are doing has felt like a grind has felt exhausting, we want to get you back to the place where the money's coming in, the service is scalable, and you are feeling good about every single thing that you're doing.
We have amazing things coming up this month, including live podcast recording, the CEO Sessions Live. This is gonna be like an unplugged in-person roundtable discussion with me and our entire team showing you the behind the scenes of what it's taken to get here and also what attracts our team to want to work in our company. We also have our live event in Long Beach, New York, this month, so if you’d like to attend and get more info on these events, then DM me with the word “Live” and I will send you the info on how you can join our program and get access to our live events.
To get our free training on the three funnels that we use to have sales every single week, our new evergreen model, then DM me the word “evergreen” on Instagram, @nicoleculver, and I will send it to you.
I’ll see you next week with a brand-new episode!

How I’m Getting Majorly Uncomfortable This Year
As with our episode last week, I want to share another Instagram Live I recently did as a way to connect with you and develop relationships with you on that platform. Doing these live broadcasts is definitely not something that I am accustomed to, and this is actually the very first one I did when stepping out of my comfort zone at the start of this year, so you’ll hear the stumbles and a bit of nervousness on my part. However, in 2024 I am going to lean into this discomfort, and I invite you to come along for the journey and do this as well, so we can do it together. By committing together to doing the uncomfortable, this is where we’ll all see the momentum and growth come from.
Make sure to listen to the podcast over the next few weeks as I bring you more of these “Pass the Mic” Instagram Live episodes, in the hopes that they will inspire and motivate you too!
