Diane Helbig had me on as a guest for her <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/accelerate-your-business-growth/id385108650">Accelerate Your Business Growth</a> podcast for a discussion around the challenges small business owners face growing a small business that revolves around themselves. “I started my small business in 1988 when I was 18. I dropped out of my first year of college and started a small business in the IT space, helping design agencies with computers. And I spent 20+ years in that business growing through different phases. “I made it above $250,000 in annual revenue by the year 2000, and after that, I bumped around that size for a long time. Even while I was saying I wanted more and saying I wanted to grow, I settled into this plateau, and was stuck there for years. “I was standing my own way. And it wasn’t until I started to make shifts in my own mindset that the tactics that I’d studied intellectually started to actually work.”<br /> ---<br /> <br /> Podcast: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/accelerate-your-business-growth/id385108650">Accelerate Your Business Growth</a><br /> Episode: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/step-back-from-your-businesses/id385108650?i=1000559688691">Step Back From Your Businesses</a><br /> Website: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/accelerate-your-business-growth/id385108650">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/accelerate-your-business-growth/id385108650</a>
