  • THINK Small Portfolio BEFORE Big

    THINK Small Portfolio BEFORE Big
    Jun 23 2025
    THINK Small Portfolio BEFORE Big In this episode of Join Up Dots, we dive deep into a challenge that so many new entrepreneurs face — the pressure to find and commit to one big business idea. Listener Hollie from Chelmsford reaches out, overwhelmed by the constant messages online telling her to go "all in" on a single venture. She’s got ideas, passion, and motivation, but none of them feel like the “perfect” thing — and that hesitation has her stuck in overthinking mode. This episode offers a powerful reframe: what if the best path isn’t to go all in on one big business, but instead to start small and create a portfolio of income streams? Rather than pouring your energy, time, and resources into something untested, why not spread your risk, learn as you go, and stack small wins into something meaningful? We share real-world stories of people who did just that — including one entrepreneur who lost thousands chasing a perfect product, and another who slowly built a collection of simple income streams that now give her full-time freedom. You’ll hear about dog walking businesses, handmade candle sales, and simple local blogs that became powerful income channels — all without a big launch, investor backing, or quitting a day job. In fact, what you’ll discover is that control, clarity, and confidence all come from movement — not from standing still while you wait for the lightning bolt of inspiration. This episode is a reminder that your journey doesn’t have to start with a grand plan. It can start with a £10 win. A happy client. A blog post. A candle sale. As we work through Hollie’s dilemma, we uncover the hidden power in doing many small things that excite you, instead of chasing one intimidating, "career-defining" idea. You’ll learn how testing multiple income streams helps you develop real skills, identify your ideal customers, and discover what truly energises you. It’s not just about making money — it’s about building a life that feels like yours. So whether you’re thinking of selling digital downloads, offering local services, creating content, or trying out creative products, this episode will open your eyes to how small ideas can grow into something incredible when given the space to evolve. You don’t need to wait until you feel ready. You don’t need to go big. You don’t need anyone’s permission. You just need to start — and let the dots join up from there. Share this episode with someone who needs to hear that building freedom doesn’t require taking huge risks.

  • Is Your Life A Bit BLAH? Then You Need The SPARK!

    Is Your Life A Bit BLAH? Then You Need The SPARK!
    Jun 18 2025
    Is Your Life A Bit BLAH? Then You Need The SPARK! On this episode of Join Up Dots, we dive into something I call The Spark—that persistent inner feeling that there’s more to life than what you’re currently living. It’s that quiet voice inside you that refuses to die, nudging you toward something better, something more fulfilling. Many of us settle into routines that leave us feeling drained, disconnected, or just “off track.” Maybe you find yourself going through the motions, wondering if this really is all there is. I share my own “desk moment,” a simple yet powerful awakening when I realised that even though things seemed fine on the surface, I was no longer fully alive or engaged in my own life. This episode is about that first vital shift: awareness. It’s not about dramatic changes or overnight transformations, but about recognising the parts of your daily life that drain your energy versus those that light you up. Through honest reflection, you can start reclaiming your power and move away from autopilot to becoming the author of your own story. Wanting more from life isn’t selfish—it’s essential. And the fear of failing to change shouldn’t stop you from trying. The bigger risk is staying stuck in a life that doesn’t fit, watching potential slip away. I invite you to reflect on your own spark and share your moments of clarity with the hashtag #MySparkMoment. Let’s build a community of people who refuse to settle and are ready to take those small steps toward meaningful change.
