Okay, I'm baaaaack! And before we get into it — yes, I know it's been a while.

My last episode was February 10th. I came out of first trimester ready to go, launched the CMA Accelerator, and then on March 1st Israel and the US went to war with Iran. Schools shut down. My six kids were home for six weeks straight. We had sirens multiple times a day and multiple times a night, and every single one meant dropping everything, grabbing kids, and running to our safe room. I'm pregnant. I was carrying a baby and a toddler in the dark at 2am more times than I can count.

It was a season. And my business felt it.

But here's what I had to remind myself — and what I want you to hear if you've had a hard season too: getting out of business shape is not a moral failure. It just means you need to put in the reps again. And knowing what to do is not the same as doing it.

In this episode I'm getting into what "day one energy" actually is, why experienced entrepreneurs lose it, and how to get it back without pretending you're starting from scratch. Because you're not.

Here's what we cover:

  • What it means to be "out of business shape" and why it happens to even the most experienced entrepreneurs
  • The fitness analogy that completely reframed how I was thinking about this
  • What "day one energy" is and why it's so magnetic — and what kills it over time
  • Why sometimes knowing too much is actually what's blocking you (the yips are real)
  • The exact scrappy-but-strategic plan I'm running right now to rebuild before baby number seven arrives
  • Why starting again and starting over are completely different things

this does not mean that you don't know what you're doing, it does not mean that you're back to zero. It just means you need to put in the reps again. Go back to the basics. A woman who is a marathon runner takes two years completely off and then starts running again, is not a beginner, okay? She knows what to do, she's just rebuilding the muscle. Memory is there. The knowledge is there, but she does actually lace up her shoes and run to rebuild that muscle. And the same thing goes for you.

Speaker

Hello. Hello. Welcome back to the podcast. Welcome back to me as well because I have not podcasted since, oh my God, I think since February last episode was February 10th, and what happened was what happened was. I came out of first trimester. Then I was launching the accelerator. I had a couple more podcast episodes that I wanted to post, but I was very busy in like behind the scenes sales. And then on March 1st Israel and the US went to war with Iran, and that was it. We were at war, school was out, kids were sent home, and they stayed home for six weeks. Until after Passover. And I honestly, like it has been so bananas over here because I'm pregnant, as with maybe number seven, which is, thank God I have pretty regular, normal, uneventful pregnancy, which I feel very blessed. But it still is being pregnant and my body is still, getting tired much faster. And it's still really beautiful and I just I love it. I love it. I love it. I love being pregnant. I love feeling my baby inside me and my kids are very excited. But it's been really, it has been a really ccra, chaotic and difficult past, like a few weeks. And the kids finally went back to school this week. And this is, I'm put, I'm recording this, I'm putting this out on Thursday April 16th. But they started this week. But I literally took me this long to actually get to the point where I could record a podcast episode'cause there was so much to catch up on. And I have been doing a lot of thinking about what it means to start over because like not in this dramatic, burn it all down way, but in a sort of, I've gotta put the, put in the reps again way. And that is exactly what today's episode is gonna be about. We're gonna be talking about day one, energy. What it is, why you might need it right now, and how to get it back without actually going back to day one. And my goal for you today is just to walk away to the total mindset shift about what it actually means to restart or rebuild or just get back into shape in your business.'cause I think a lot of us are way harder on ourselves than we need to be. And also some of us need a little kick in the butt to actually move. So both. Okay. Real quick before we get into it, I wanna tell you about something that I launched a couple months ago, but didn't really talk about and I'm really excited about it. It is called the CEO Mom Diaries, and it is a free telegram broadcast channel where I'm gonna be taking you fully behind the scenes with me in real time as I implement this plan that I'll be talking to you about. I'm literally documenting everything I'm doing right now, the strategy decisions, the offers, the scrappy selling, the whole thing. It'll be like just a bunch of mini audio trainings, personal riffs. Stuff that I might necessarily share publicly. I wanna keep it a little more protected. So it's like a voice note coach in your pocket. Not a chaos of a group chat with like tons and tons of messages. It's a broadcast, you might comment on the broadcast, but it's not going to be like an ongoing chat. Just really good behind the scenes stuff delivered straight to you. So go to l bendin.com/diaries to join. It is free and is going to be so good. Okay, so let's get into the episode. So here's the story. Years ago, right before my business, before all of it I went through a really fit period in my life. Meaning in eng in England when you say fit, it's it's their word for hot. But actually in shape fit. And I know that sounds like a weird flex, but stick with me. I had three or four little kids. It was, I actually started really getting into shape after my third, then I got pregnant with my fourth son who, they're all, my, my first four kids are all about two years apart, give or take. So I got pregnant with my fourth son. Continued to work out like very consistently throughout that entire pregnancy. I think that was like the best pregnancy I ever had, to be honest. I was working out until the day I went into labor basically. And and then after I had him. I got back into working out and I was doing these insane those Gillian Michaels workouts, like those, I don't know, like jumping jack pushups and crazy burpees and the kind of stuff that made me feel slightly unhinged, but also amazing and oh my God check me out. I can't believe I'm doing this. And I was in the best shape of my life. And then. Life happened. I started growing my business. We moved houses and I don't know, the workouts just stopped and I've worked out, I've gotten into shape on and off, but never at that level, right? When I finally tried to get back, like into shape, you guys, I could not do a. I cannot do more than three pushups. I could not lift the weights that I used to throw around, like they were nothing. And honestly, I felt a little bit embarrassed I know how to do this. I've done this, right? I used to be able to do X, Y, z X amount of burpees, X amount of of, lifts with this particular weight. This many squats and this many whatever. I was like, I was like ashamed to be honest and I'm like, I know how to do this. I've done this. Why is this so hard? And then I had this realization like, okay, yes, you know how to do it. You've done it before. You can know everything about fitness, but if you haven't been doing the work and you haven't been putting in the reps, you can still be outta shape even if you know exactly what to do. Knowing does not make you fit. Doing the reps does. And I had this exact same moment in my business recently. So the first thing I wanna talk about is that you might be out of business shape, and that is not a moral failure, Here's what I mean. There are gonna be seasons of life when you're on firing on all cylinders in your business and in your life, right? You're showing consistently, you're making sales. Momentum is real, right? And something happens. My, my co, one of my coaches, Taylor, refers to momentum as kinda like this idea of big waves, when you're surfing and you have this, you ride this big wave of momentum. You've been like putting the reps, doing the work, showing up, podcasting, getting in front of other people's audiences, putting out consistent content, and you can ride that wave for a decent amount of time. But if you do not continue to put in some level of. Effort, right? Like the wave is always gonna come back in and you're gonna need to paddle back out again, right? So maybe it is a hard season a health thing, a family thing, an external thing that rocks everything. And for me, it's been like a lot of those things together. I'm pregnant with my seventh baby. We had our kids home for six weeks, starting March 1st because of the war with Iran, which meant there were sirens multiple times a day, multiple times a night. Obviously being woken up, if you've ever had a newborn baby. It felt like that except less cute. Because it was not just about picking up a baby and nursing them. It was about running out of our room, siren in the middle of the night, running out of our room, grabbing the kids. We have two, two young kids that we had actually had to carry in. So my 5-year-old and my baby, so I would take the baby. He, my husband would take the 5-year-old. Sometimes my husband wasn't even home, so I had to send my big boys to go, help me pick up the little kids. And and I was. Exhausted. I, we were we were all exhausted. We were all on our last nerve. Like honestly me, my husband, the kids we were just, everyone was so tired. And when you're tired and when you are living in this constant state of adrenaline, there's, there's gonna be. Fallout, there's gonna be emotional fallout to this. My nervous system was completely out of whack. And so were my kids. I had less patience. They had less patience, and I don't blame them. It was a crazy situation. We couldn't go too far away from the house because what if there was a siren? I remember there was, we had an alert, we'd get an alert like about 10, seven to 10 minutes before a siren saying there might be a siren, there is a missile currently on its way. It sounds insane. And then we would and then you had to like. Try to get stuff done. It'd be like, oh, should I take a shower quickly before the siren happens? Should I finish, mixing this thing and turn off the fire on the stove? There was the calculations, I remember it was one time I was picking up my nephew from my mom's house because my sister had just had a baby. She had a baby, right? Right at the beginning of March, her second baby. And our sons are together in playgroup. So I was picking him up and as I was putting him in the car to drive to the playgroup, we got the alert and I was like, I don't know, like the playgroup is like literally three, four minutes away. Should I just stay here or should we go to the playgroup? I'm like, you know what, I'll go to playgroup. And then worst case, if there's a siren, we'll run into the bombs shelter, like the safe room inside the women's house. Anyway, as I'm pulling up to the playgroup, the siren sounds, my, my adorable like little toddler who is was so chill about it. He was like, oh, siren. And he would immediately run I didn't have to tell him anymore. He knew to run straight to our safe room. So he's oh, siren. And I had to carry these two, one and a half year olds pregnant. I would like to point this out. Running into the building and banging on the door and they were already in the safe room and they finally came out. We ran in and we went. I sat there for the next 20 minutes with, with his his playgroup teacher. I wanna call, you wanna call it a teacher and all the little kids. And that was like, that was crazy. And that was just what our life looked like for six weeks. And currently at this exact moment in time, we're in the middle of a ceasefire. I'm not holding my breath. I'm not expecting it to last. I'm trying to enjoy the peace and quiet while I can, while my kids are back in school for this week. And and to be honest, I I feel like a little bit I feel a little more prepared in a way because I'm like, okay, this could happen again. The kids might be sent home from school again, and we don't know when it's gonna, we don't know when things are gonna go back to normal. All right? I was not able. To work at all. Like I think in February I beginning of February came outta my first trimester. I was starting to feel better, was it my second trimester? I'm like, yes, energy, productivity, I'm gonna get so much done. It's gonna be awesome. I launched my CMA accelerator and then I literally, everything blew up. And so I got outta business shape. And to be honest, I've been outta business shape for a while because we have been in this on and off sort of war situation since October 7th, 2023. I found out I was pregnant on October 6th, 2023 with my current toddler. So it's been like war, pregnancy, postpartum, more war stuff. Just kids.'cause I have six kids, right? And then. Pregnancy again and more war, and it's just been like, it's been crazy. It's been bananas and life has not been normal. If you wanna call it whatever normal means, it's not been normal. And so I definitely I had a season where I was so consistent. And I was not as consistent as I used to be. And it is what it is. You have to show up with some level of consistency, what, in whichever way you're doing it all. And I'm, and I'm, that's what I'm saying. I'm not even like making excuses and I'm not like, I'm not like, oh this should have still worked and I should, I'm so far along my business. I've been doing this since 2018 or 2017 actually. I should, I should be, I shouldn't need to do this. No, you have to continue to keep trust with your audience. You have to keep showing up for your audience. And if you're not, then there's going to be fallout. There is going to be fallout my business like when you're running out of gas a little bit, right? And like you're sputtering to a slow halt, but you're still like going very slowly. You're trying to like, you're trying to like keep the gas going until you get to the gas station. That's what it felt like, right? I didn't have any, I didn't have any more gas to put in the tank. I was delivering to my clients a hundred percent. I love my clients, I love working with them in my mastermind in the accelerator and whatever programs I was doing, but I really had much less energy to market externally than I used to. And. Yes. If you have ads running constantly, you have to do less content. That is true. If you have long form content and you have SEO and you have constant traffic coming to those things, you could be on social media less, a hundred percent, right? But but again there has to be something going out, whether that is through paid advertising, whether it's through long form SEO stuff, what, YouTube, whatever it is. And then I did not have a lot of that. I had some of it, like this podcast for example, was getting downloads every single week. More downloads than I could have possibly imagined it would get. To be honest. Every single week since even since I stopped podcasting, like from February till now, I've been getting, in fact. If I actually look at my stats, I'm looking at my stats right now. If I look at my stats from from February till now, I have, let's see, from February, I. I have had, okay, this is crazy. I've had 882 downloads in the past two and a half months. I don't get a TI get like maybe 40, 50 down, downloads per episode. It's not like a huge, this is more of a conversion podcast than like a growing my, a huge audience podcast. I wouldn't be sad with a huge audience, but let's just say on average I get about like 40, 50 downloads per episode. I. Like I was getting downloads every single week. Even though I was not podcasting at all. So the week of February 2nd and I got 129, I think there was one week, the week of February 16th, it was my lowest. I got nine downloads that week. After that, I just kept getting downloads. 136 a week, 35 92 26 30. 270, I got 279 podcast downloads last week, and I was just, I was in shock. So again I do have, I did have this running, but I just didn't have any, I didn't really have it pointing towards any sort of funnels really, or any, anything. I was really launching because my e oh, my email thing, my emails broke down and stopped working. So I'm in the middle of a migration to a different email provider, so I wasn't really email emailing my list. It was so bananas, like all these things happened at the same time. And I just completely lost traction. So what I needed to hear, if you've had a season like this, you might have gotten a little bit out of business shape too. And it may not have been as crazy as this. You might not be having a war and a pregnancy. And and again, I'm so grateful. My family's healthy. I'm healthy. We have healthy pregnancy, which I do not take for granted. I have a dad who is an OB GYN. I definitely do not take it for granted. I know everything that can happen. So this was really crazy. You don't have to have a period as crazy as this for you to get out of, get out of shape in your business. And what I needed to hear is that this is, this does not mean that you don't know what you're doing, It does not mean that you're back to zero. It just means you need to put in the reps again. Go back to the basics. A woman who is a marathon runner takes two years completely off and then starts running again, is not a beginner, She knows what to do, she's just rebuilding the muscle. Memory is there. The knowledge is there, but she does actually lace up her shoes and run to rebuild that muscle. And the same thing goes for you. So the next thing I wanna talk about is the idea of the day one energy. When you are brand new in business, there is this energy, like this bone deep, like optimism and opportunity That, and that confidence that if you just show up and share your stuff, people will buy. And honestly, it's not even wrong. Because that there is something about that level of unshakeable certainty and belief and conviction that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. And that's what happened for me. I know when I, in 2019, in 29, end of 20 19, 20 20 when I was like. I know so much. I've been, I've been selling services for years, since 2017. I knew a lot about marketing. I'm like, people would definitely wanna learn this stuff for me. And I showed up like crazy. I shared my stuff. I believed so deeply that if I just showed up and sold, we talk about showing up and selling a lot. I that I could, and I showed people that I could help them. People would buy and people bought, because confidence is magnetic. That is just facts. But here's what happens When you've been around for a while and things get hard, all right? You stop having that day one energy. You start second guessing, you overthink, you almost like you know too much. You know about all the strategies and the funnels and the algorithms, and somehow all of that creates paralysis. You get what they call the ips, right? If there are any sports fans in here, the IPS is when an athlete who's been doing something for years suddenly can't do the basic thing anymore, right? Like he makes one big mistake and all of a sudden it's like he's blocked, right? It's almost worse than not knowing how, because your brain is in the way and like you've proven that you could, and now you're like so disappointed in yourself because what happened to me? What happened? And so I I. I I had the Ys, I was just like, oh my God. This is crazy. I know what to do. Damn. I, it's not like I, what to do, and I'm like, why? I need to just keep launching. But then I realized that I was not, I had not been putting in the reps, right? The consistent reps, the consistent nurturing, all that kind of stuff, because there's always grow, nurture self, right? You have to grow your audience, nurture your audience, sell to your audience. This is basic stuff. I've talked about this a lot. I had not been really growing my audience, I had not really been nurturing my audience that much. So it does not make, it does not make any sense that trying to sell to my audience would work because they were not being nurtured enough, right? And in this age of ai you need to build trust. You can't shortcut it. You cannot shortcut it. Alright? So the goal is not to pretend that you don't know things and to go back day one energy and pretend oh, I have no idea what I'm doing. What would I do if I started again? Although I do have an episode called, here's what I would do if I'd start from scratch. If I was starting from scratch. This is literally it's so good. I would go listen to it. I will link it in the description, but. You go back to basics. Not because you don't know advanced stuff, but because the foundation is what holds everything. You take your lumps, you stop being precious about having to do the thing again. You stop being like, oh, I shouldn't have to do this, and I shouldn't have to do that. Yeah, you do. You have to show up again. You have to keep getting back out there and showing up again, right? And you decide, right? You make a decision, not a, I'll just try kinda decision. It's here are my two choices. My choice is either I take my lumps I do the reps. I put in the reps. I go back to basics. I get scrappy again, or I can, I don't know, go get a job. I don't think I would have the freedom that I need to have with seven children if I go get a job. So clearly that is not an option. I could get a job. I, and I have, I've done, done for you work and client work over the years, a hundred percent. But I could get a job, but I don't want to. I don't want to, so do I have, do I have any objections taking on done for you clients and doing some client work I love coaching, I love strategy. This is my favorite thing to do in the world, but a full-time having to leave my house and leave my baby job. No, I, this is, I don't know if this is gonna be my last baby. Some say it will be, some say maybe not. I don't know. But I am, I have seven kids. We only have so much room in our house, and and I think I, I think that I think that, I want to really enjoy this time. I really want to savor the time with this new baby. So you have to decide. Are you gonna do this or not? Alright? And if you do decide, you write that decision down on a, I would say write it on a post-it, right? Or put it on a, put it on a on a on a whiteboard or something and do it. So the real advantage you have over day one U is really everything. And the move right now is to use that knowledge. So here's what I'm actually doing my business right now, because I wanna be real with you and not just like theoretical and be like, oh, just go back to day one. I'm going back to basics. I'm generally going back to basics. I'm getting the dms, I'm having one-to-one conversations. I'm gonna be doing some one-to-one work with clients as I rebuild my front-end funnels. And when I say rebuilding I. I have a lot of front end funnels, but now I'm gonna be relaunching my CEO Mom academy. I was gonna do it before I had the baby, but now with the war, it set me back like many weeks and I just don't think I'm gonna have the time to give it the attention that it needs. So my goal is. To really get people set up for it. Bring people into that help my CMA accelerator clients get amazing results because we're really working on that foundational messaging and sales stuff together, and it's so good. And I'm gonna be sending people to a sort of like a nurture funnel. To move them towards CMA. So as I drive people to my front end funnels, my low ticket offers my freebies and they come into my world. There's going to be some automatic backend stuff, moving them towards applying towards my programs and building a wait list throughout the summer for me to launch in the fall. Okay. So if you're like isn't that going backwards? Doing one-to-one work? No, it is not. Alright, and let me explain. Going scrappy in one-to-one right now is actually a strategic choice for me. Alright? Because what one-to-one conversations do that no funnel can replicate right now is remind you exactly what your people need to hear. They sharpen your messaging in real time. They generate cash flow, especially like one-to-one cash flow. While you're building the backend and they give you the receipts that will make your funnels convert later. So when you do this work, one-to-one I love get going deep in the weeds with my clients. And I'm, and I'm very strategically building these one-to-one packages so that it requires less time with me on calls and more either doing, with my clients doing work on my own time and me reviewing asynchronously or me just doing some work. I have some, a couple of VIP options that they're gonna actually get some done for you stuff. Some done for you, copy done for them. Going back to my copywriting roots. And and I do already do have, again, like I said, I have amazing low ticket offers. They exist, they work. So what I'm doing right now is optimizing them and building out those backend email sequences that move people towards applying for CEO Mom Academy. That is the goal. That is the Emerald City offer. CMA is the center of the whole web. Everything I'm building right now is just gonna be a pathway that leads people there. So my basic plan for the next 10 weeks or so, because it's basically 10 weeks, I'm doing exactly three months. And I wanna give myself a couple weeks before I have the baby to just get things ready. I, and in case you're wondering, I do not know what I'm having. We have five boys and one girl. I'm assuming it's another boy, but if it's another girl, my daughter's gonna be very happy and I'll be very happy for her. And also for me, because sisters are the best. I have three sisters. They're the best thing ever. I want her to have a sister, but I really feel that, God is giving us whatever we are supposed to have, and I'm excited about it. So that's just a little side note'cause people have been asking, oh, what are you finding out? Do you know what it is? I never find out what I'm having. I don't wanna know. I wanna find out when I'm holding the baby in my arms. So what I'm gonna be doing is I'm gonna be offering some audits, a limited amount of audits per week. They're gonna be really low cost. And limited spots because they can only do so many every week. For messaging an offer, I'm gonna be calling them the mom viable money maps, and I'll be I'll be dropping the link in here. Once the link is ready. It's almost ready. Because this number one, this is trust building. It is, it's easy, right? It's easy for people to buy. And I want people to be able to see the gaps in the blind spots that, I might see that they might not see in their own stuff. And it shows people exactly what I can do, right? Again, that's the trust building. That is the trust building. I might do some little case studies based on those, if people are okay with them. I'm, I always check with people and I never use specific details and names because I because I wouldn't wanna be someone who's doing that to me, so I'll, I will always ask. I'm doing I have a special new package coming out. If you wanna know more about this new package, it is going to be so good. It's gonna set you up for sales during the summer. So if you are interested in this, DM me on Instagram, the word summer, and I will share it behind the it's just getting ready. I have, I'm putting together the Google Doc about it, like right now. I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be doing this. This is gonna be for coaches and service providers who want more qualified leads for their premium services and to make some extra money, before summer hits and during the summer. I'm going to please God. I'm planning to host a summit in June. For a list growth push for myself and also just because I love doing it so much, I love bringing together CEO moms to share their wisdom. And I'm gonna be building out a private podcast funnel and batching a bunch of value newsletters and setting up some evergreen load ticket offers through run an autopilot while I'm on maternity leave. And all roads are leading to CMA. Everything's gonna be feeding the wait list. Everything has a purpose. So that is not starting over. That's taking what I know. And that is building intentionally. And yeah, some of it is scrappy. It's getting in the dms, having real conversations like it's 2019. And I'm completely okay with that because I have something that 2019 L did not have. I have the experience, I have the audience, I have the offers, I have the systems. I have tons of low ticket offers and freebies and things that I can enter into collabs and bundles. And that's what I'm gonna be doing also throughout the next few months. So you're gonna be seeing me sharing other people's stuff as well because I really believe that we all. A rising tie lifts all boats and we, and collaboration over competition every single time. And I just know I have to put in their ups again. So day one energy with seven years of expertise behind it is generally one of the most powerful combinations in business, and it is available to you too. So let's bring this home'cause I have to, maybe you just woke up from his nap. If you learn nothing else from today, I want you to remember these three things. Number one, getting out of business shape is not a moral failure. It is just a season and seasons change when you decide they do It might take some paddling out like paddling out into the waves. It's gonna take some work, but you will get into that wave of momentum. I fully believe that for you, number two, you can have the day one energy without the day one naivete. You can have that bone deep confidence and all your experience, they don't cancel each other out bone deep. Confidence does not need to come from ignorance. It can come from knowledge. And number three, going back to basics is not going backwards. The foundation is the whole game. If your foundation is solid, everything scales, and if it's shaky, it's gonna be hard for things to scale, right? And the move is to just decide not to try not to see how it goes to actually make the decision that you are building this thing. You're getting back into the zone. You're making your plan, you're putting in your rep. You are not a newbie, alright? You are a woman who knows what she's doing. You, you've been through something hard, you're choosing to lace up and run again. That is not the same as starting over. That is starting again, and that is a huge difference. So if today's episode hit you right in the feelings, I want you to do two things. First of all, share this episode with the biz bestie. Who needs to hear it?

And and you are gonna be getting some behind the scenes strategies, sales tips, mini training, stuff that I'm not sharing in other places. And if you want a real look at what building a sustainable business actually looks like and getting back in the zone and putting in the reps, this is where it's happening. I'm sharing how I'm gonna be proofing my business. I'm actually gonna be doing, I think I'm gonna be doing a little series on this Instagram as well, but we're gonna see how it goes.
