What You’ll Learn

• Why looking back is just as important as looking forward
• How small habits can shift your wellbeing and mindset
• The power of honest conversations and strong friendships

Episode 574: Clothing the Gaps on Not a Date to Celebrate

Join me for an important conversation with Laura Thompson and Sarah Sheridan from Clothing the Gaps about their "Not a Date to Celebrate" campaign. This episode explores how small businesses can create meaningful social change, the power of authentic advocacy, and practical ways you can get involved - whether you're in Australia or listening internationally.

This conversation covers the history behind why January 26th is problematic, how Clothing the Gaps successfully campaigned to "Free the Flag," and their current petition that's gained over 73,000 signatures. You'll learn about building effective campaigns, using your business platform for good, and why this 87-year-old conversation is more relevant than ever.

⭐️⭐️ Special thanks to our sponsor, Vanta AI. Get $1000 off at vanta.com/mydailybusiness  ⭐️⭐️

In this quick tip episode, Fiona digs into a behaviour she sees all the time in small business — self-sabotage. From saying you want more media exposure to turning opportunities down because you “don’t feel ready,” this episode is a reality check wrapped in encouragement. Fiona shares real examples, practical questions to ask yourself and why fear might be stopping you from the growth you’re craving.

What You’ll Learn

  • Why so many small business owners unknowingly block their own opportunities
  • The difference between saying no because something isn’t aligned and saying no because you’re scared
  • How to accept PR, podcast and media opportunities before you feel “ready”
  • Simple questions to ask yourself to stop self-sabotage
  • Why feeling nervous is normal (even for experienced people) and how to act anyway
  • How small, brave yeses create visibility, connections and growth

Episode 571: Stop Fixing Everything: Focus on These 3 Things Instead

⭐️⭐️ Special thanks to our sponsor, Vanta AI. Get $1000 off at vanta.com/mydailybusiness  ⭐️⭐️

What if one simple question could transform your entire business in 2026? In this episode, Fiona is sharing the exact question she asks every potential client that reveals the three things you should focus on to create real, meaningful change.

Instead of trying to fix everything at once (we've all been there!), this episode will help you identify the THREE specific things that would make the biggest impact on your business over the next 12 months. We're talking real, actionable focus - not just growth for growth's sake.

You'll discover:
• The magic wand question that cuts through the noise
• Why focusing on just 3 things beats a 47-item to-do list
• Real examples of game-changing answers from other business owners
• The three-perspective framework for choosing your priorities
• How to turn your answers into your 2026 business plan

Whether it's confidence in marketing, launching that new category, or finally systemizing your processes - this episode will help you get crystal clear on what actually matters.

Perfect timing as we head into the new year. Grab a pen and get ready to focus.
