MSL 409 - The overlooked skill that will grow your solopreneur business faster than any other

MSL 411 - The unconscious way solopreneurs kill their best ideas (and how to save them!)

I’ve noticed something about myself over the years as a solopreneur, and I see it in others all the time, too. We come up with a great idea, get excited about it, and then we start talking about it before it’s fully formed. In this episode, I break down the unconscious habit of sharing ideas too early and how it quietly drains their energy, creates doubt, and can even stop them from becoming something meaningful.

MSL 410 - The sales pitch mistake solopreneurs make and what to do instead to win the work

In this episode of My Solopreneur Life, I share one of the most common mistakes I see solopreneurs make when they finally get in front of a potential client. After all the effort it takes to generate a lead and secure a meeting, many of us fall into the same trap. We start talking about our process, our technology, our methods, and all the things we’re proud of. The problem is that prospects are not interested in how we work nearly as much as we think they are. What they really care about is whether we understand their problem and can help them solve it.

MSL 409 - The overlooked skill that will grow your solopreneur business faster than any other

Most solopreneurs focus on execution, productivity, and output because that feels like the safest way to grow a business. In this episode, I share why that mindset eventually limits you — and why creativity is one of the most overlooked skills in solopreneur success. Creativity isn’t about being artistic or expressive. It’s about seeing patterns, identifying gaps, rethinking assumptions, and finding smarter ways to serve clients. When creativity gets pushed aside, businesses stall, energy drops, and burnout creeps in. I also talk about how analytical, logical solopreneurs are already using creativity every day without recognizing it. When you solve client problems, refine your positioning, improve systems, or spot new opportunities, you’re being creative. The real growth shift happens when you make intentional space for that thinking instead of living in constant execution mode. Creativity, when treated as a skill instead of a personality trait, becomes a powerful driver of clarity, confidence, and long-term business growth.

In this episode of My Solopreneur Life, I chat with Miriam Schulman, author of Artpreneur: The Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Sustainable Living From Your Creativity and creator of the Artist Incubator program. Miriam shares her pivot from a Wall Street career after 9/11 into building a long-term art business, then turning her hard-won lessons into coaching frameworks that help artists and creative solopreneurs build real income.

MSL 407 - From isolated to energized! Building connection as a one-person business

In this episode of My Solopreneur Life, I share my own experience navigating years of working alone and what I’ve learned about creating connection on purpose. From building local networks and micro-interactions to using movement, community, and even AI as a thinking partner, I walk through practical ways to stay energized, visible, and emotionally supported. Because being a solopreneur doesn’t mean being isolated. With a few intentional shifts, you can design a business and a life that feel connected, human, and deeply fulfilling.
