If you're a new business owner or still in the season where you prefer to call what you do a side hustle, freelance work, or a hobby, this is for you. I\\u2019m sharing 5 strategies to help you step into a CEO role, even if that term feels silly to you now.

I originally recorded a similar episode to this in 2019, inspired by this quote: "Treat your business like a business and it'll PAY you like a business. Treat your business like a hobby and it will COST you like a hobby."\\xa0

In fact, at that time, I had a post go viral on Instagram that said, \\u201cYou can\\u2019t run your business like a freelancer and expect results like a CEO.\\u201d - something I still agree with today! Four years later (after working on my own business and with many other businesses!), I\\u2019m back to share more insights on this incredibly important topic! This episode is a must-listen!
