Navigating Roller Coaster Business Years with Strategy & Systems with Jessica Thompson of Aisé Consulting

2025 has been an interesting, roller coaster of a year for all of us (to say the least) - but especially for us business owners. And if you've been feeling alone, lost, struggling or close to burnout or giving up, this is the episode for you!

I'm excited to be joined by Jessica Thompson, Dubsado & ClickUp expert and owner of Aisé Consulting, for an open and honest conversation about our experiences in business so far this year - the good, the bad, and the lessons learned.

In today's episode, we chat about:

• her experience full-time traveling, starting her business, and settling into a more routine life
• our mindset wobbles & personal struggles throughout this year, and the lessons we've learned
• reconnecting to your bigger why & longterm vision and allowing that to lead
• why you still need to invest & make strategic moves in your business NOW to keep growing
• learning from the business owners who have been through these roller coaster years before
• the Dubsado templates Jess is launching on 7/15
• the amazing Dubsado forms Jess & her team creates (and my experience working with her on that)
• how building connection & trust in your brand, online presence & client experience helps them feel safe & good about investing thousands of dollars
• why it’s so helpful to outsource work to a pro for you to get clarity & strategy that you wouldn’t otherwise
• the amount of work & trust it requires to run a team, stepping into a new role in your business, making strategic decisions
• how we organize our time & the systems we use in our business
• the tipping point for each of us in our businesses this year
• letting go and finding an outlet for your need for control so you don’t operate from desperate energy
• trusting yourself and your intuition
