Sigrun on Wings of Inspired Business: 317 The Lifestyle Entrepreneur: Sigrun on Scaling A Strategic Coaching Business

Sigrun Gudjonsdottir joined Melinda Wittstock on Wings of Inspired Business on April 11, 2019 to talk about scaling a strategic coaching business.

About this episode

In episode 317, Sigrun tells Melinda how she went from a corporate turnaround CEO to an entrepreneur, after burnout, illness and a move to Switzerland. She had doubled her revenue every year for four years and was heading toward eight figures with a small virtual team. She talks about her mission to help women in business, and how she is building a company that leaves room for travel, golf and time with her family.

What they talk about

  • Making the leap from corporate life to your own business
  • Beating perfectionism and letting go of control
  • Setting up systems, processes and a team to scale before you burn out
  • Designing a lifestyle business with room for family, hobbies and travel
  • Staying focused when you have lots of ideas
