Coffee Chat Take 1: You’re Not Behind—You’re Building Without Support

Shannon Baker | Business Operations Strategist

Welcome to the very first Coffee Chat Take! These new, bite-sized episodes are my way of staying connected with you in between the full-length episodes you’re used to. They’re short, informal, and straight from the heart. Like a quick voice note from a friend who gets it!

In this first one, I’m sharing why I decided to start this series and offering a reminder that I know someone out there needs to hear:

You’re not behind. You’re just building without the right support.

If your business feels heavy, scattered, or like you’re always playing catch-up… it’s not a personal failure. It’s just time to build with more clarity, structure, and ease.

These mini episodes are designed to give you a quick reset, a moment to pause, reflect, and take a breath before diving back into the day.

Press play for today's 4-minute dose of encouragement! And if it resonates, share it with someone who might need the same reminder.

Speaker 1:

Well, I would like to welcome you to the very first Coffee Chat. Take my name is Shannon Baker. I'm the host of the Mind your Time podcast. Now, if you've been listening for a while then you know four episodes are currently being published every other week, and lately I've been wondering how to stay connected with you in between those episodes without the heavy lift that comes from creating an entire episode. So, after thinking about it and talking to a few of you in other spaces, I decided to try out shorter episodes that will just be five to 10 minutes long and I would share what's going on in my world or conversations I have with my clients and members of the Mighty Society Systems Insanity Suite. So the topics are going to vary, from mindset to tech tool updates, maybe a system insight or something happening behind the scenes in my own business that I think can help you grow with more intention.

Speaker 1:

These episodes, they're not going to be tutorials or lectures. They're going to be very informal, like we're having a coffee chat, because business isn't just about strategy. We know it's mental, it's emotional and it's deeply personal too. So let's kick things off with a reminder that I think more of us need to hear. You are not behind, my friend. You're just building without the support you need. And I'm not just talking about support from people or your team members. I mean the support structure that you need within your business, things like clarity, routines, having boundaries and yes systems, the pieces that allow you to grow without burning yourself out or second guessing every move that you make.

Speaker 1:

Because when you're constantly in reaction mode because you're chasing money, have overlapping deadlines, you've missed deadlines, you're rewriting the same emails or you're constantly jumping from one task to the next, it's very easy to feel like something must be wrong with you. But, my friend, it's not you. It's the way you've been trying to hold everything together on your own, and if that's where you are right now, I totally get it, because I've been there too. That's another reason that I decided to do these quick episodes. It's to give you space to breathe, to take a moment to reflect, or it may just be the gentle nudge that you need to help you see, it's time to build a business that actually supports the life that you want and get off the hustle bus. So, if today's message has you shaking your head, yes, take a minute to think about what kind of support do you really need right now. Is it time, is it space, is it strategy or is it just? You need encouragement. But you don't have to figure it all out today or on your own. But you do deserve to stop feeling like you're drowning in your business, and if you want support making those shifts, the doors to the Mighty Society Systems Insanity Suite are always open and I would love to see you inside. Or you can simply book a power in motion jumpstart session and we can get you back on solid ground.

Speaker 1:

But for now, I want you to view this coffee chat talk as your reminder. You're not behind, you're just ready for a better way forward. So I'll see you back here next week for our regularly scheduled episode, and in two weeks we'll have another coffee chat tape. Now, if there's something in particular that you would like for me to talk about during these chats, please feel free to DM me on Instagram, at the underscore Shannon Baker, or at Mind, your Time Podcast. I'd love to hear from you. So that's your coffee chat take for today no pressure, just progress. So I'll see you next time.
