Dear Lorraine Rapid Fire: How To Set Prices, Who To Outsource To & Managing Too Much Client Demand

Why do the same challenges keep appearing for women building businesses… no matter the industry, stage or personality?

After eight years mentoring female founders, and working with thousands of women through retreats, programs and private mentoring, I’ve started to notice something pretty striking.

The businesses may be very different. The women themselves certainly are. Yet the same patterns tend to surface again and again.

Certain conversations repeat and certain reminders land at exactly the moment a founder needs to hear them. They are often deceptively simple ideas, but they have a way of shifting how a woman leads her business almost immediately.

In this bonus episode, I’m sharing a handful of the advice I share most often with my mentees.

These are nuggets drawn directly from years of mentoring women as they navigate the realities of building and scaling their companies. They span leadership, personal standards, and the often overlooked role that energy, capacity and self-leadership play in sustainable growth.

Because while strategy matters, the way a woman leads herself is what really shapes the trajectory of her business.

If this conversation resonates with you, it will also give you a sense of the philosophy behind my Bold Darling Mastermind. 

Inside Bold Darling, we go much deeper into this work, supporting women to implement these principles within their businesses in a way that is strategic, sustainable and expansive.

Doors are open until midnight Thursday 26th March. Visit bolddarling.com to explore.

Bonus Ep! The Business Advice I Share Most Often With My Mentees

Burnout has become strangely normal in the entrepreneurial world, particularly for women.

Late nights. Weekend work. Saying no to life so the business can keep growing.

Many founders truly believe that success requires sacrifice.

In this episode, I challenge that belief head-on.

I share why burnout isn’t a strategy problem, it’s a design problem, and why so many businesses are structured in ways that drain the very women building them.

I also pull back the curtain on how I intentionally designed my own business and life since my burnout-adjacent experience in 2019, including working three and a half days a week while continuing to grow a thriving business.

You’ll hear real examples from Bold Darling members who have redesigned their businesses to create more space, more calm, and more sustainable success.

Have you found yourself saying these phrases a lot?!
“It’ll calm down soon.”
“I just need to push through this season.”
“I want to scale, but I’m already maxed out.”

If so, this episode will challenge you to rethink what success actually requires, and what might be possible when you design your business differently.

Success Without Sacrifice: What Does It ACTUALLY Mean?

This conversation feels deeply special.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Olivia Green, Founder of North Side Speech Pathology, co-founder of Minds in Bloom AND member of my Bold Darling Mastermind.

Six years ago, Olivia was driving between clients with everything in her car, sometimes breastfeeding her four-month-old between sessions.

Today? She leads a team of 12 clinicians, runs a thriving clinic space, and has expanded into a second venture supporting neurodivergent students in schools. Oh and she’s had another child.

But what I love most about Olivia isn’t the growth.

It’s how she’s grown.

She’s steady, grounded, strategic and consistent.

In this episode, Olivia and I cover:
The key decisions that moved her from solo operator to founder
The internal shifts that had to happen before her external expansion
Why she rejects flashy growth models
How she blends motherhood, marriage, fitness, and leadership
The boundaries that protect her energy
The role accountability has played in her execution
What changed when she stepped into Bold Darling

If you’re building something meaningful and want success that doesn’t cost you your life, this conversation will land deeply.
