JUNE 2025

June’s Focus: Design a Business That Supports Your Life

When I became a digital nomad, I wasn’t just looking for new places to explore, I was searching for a new way to live and work.

One that wasn’t built on burnout.

One that didn’t require being glued to my laptop.

One that let me serve with purpose while still honoring my personal peace.

And what I’ve realized is: you don’t have to live out of a suitcase to crave that kind of freedom.

Whether you run your business from a storefront, a studio, or a shared home office, you deserve systems that make your business feel lighter, not heavier.

What We’ll Cover This Month 

Cash Flow Strategy of the Month

Bookkeeping on the Move

One of the most liberating feelings in business?

Knowing exactly where your money is—without digging through emails or waiting until tax season to figure it out.

Bookkeeping isn’t just about compliance—it’s about control.

It’s about creating a business that doesn’t hold you hostage to spreadsheets or second-guessing.

Whether you’re working from a café in Portugal or your kitchen table in New York, financial clarity gives you the power to make decisions with confidence and ease.

You don’t have to be a financial expert to stay on top of your numbers. You just need a system that matches your lifestyle and the way you work.

Here’s what that can look like:

1️⃣ Cloud-Based Tools = Anytime, Anywhere Access

Whether you’re traveling or just need flexibility, use tools like Wave, QuickBooks Online, or even Google Sheets to access your books from any device.

2️⃣ Track Expenses in Real Time

No more digging for receipts or playing catch-up months later. Use mobile apps or bank integrations to capture your spending as it happens.

3️⃣ Know What’s Safe to Spend

When your income and expenses are up to date, you know what’s truly profit—and what needs to be saved, reinvested, or set aside for taxes.

Building Flexible Systems

If you’ve ever felt like your business systems are too rigid—or worse, nonexistent—you’re not alone.

Many small business owners get stuck between two extremes:

⚙️ Trying to build overly complicated systems they don’t have time to manage, or

🌀 Operating in chaos, reacting to everything in the moment.

But there’s a better way—one that balances structure with flexibility.

Whether you’re a digital nomad, a local business owner, or somewhere in between, sustainable systems give you room to breathe, create, and grow.

Your business shouldn’t feel like a machine you’re constantly oiling. It should feel like a rhythm—a set of intentional workflows that move with you, not against you.

Here’s what that can look like:

1️⃣ Start With What Happens Most Often

Don’t systemize everything. Begin with repeatable tasks: onboarding a client, sending invoices, posting content, tracking income.

2️⃣ Use Tools That Match Your Energy

Prefer visuals? Try Trello or Notion. Love minimalism? Google Sheets + calendar reminders might be all you need.

3️⃣ Build for Movement, Not Perfection

Instead of trying to perfect every detail, ask: “Can I repeat this without reinventing the wheel?” If yes, you’re already ahead.

Spotlight on Performance Management

Tracking What Supports Lifestyle

Growth doesn’t always look like a spike in revenue or a calendar booked solid.

Sometimes, it looks like:

✅ More peace in your schedule

✅ More clarity in your decisions

✅ More energy for your creative work

The traditional ways we measure business growth—revenue, traffic, followers—don’t always tell the whole story. Especially if you’re building a business that prioritizes sustainability, values-alignment, and life beyond the screen.

When you shift your definition of growth, you stop chasing metrics that don’t serve you—and start building systems that support what actually matters.

Here’s how to rethink your business performance:

1️⃣ Focus on Alignment, Not Just Achievement

Ask: Does this growth reflect the business I actually want to build? More clients aren’t always better if they come with burnout.

2️⃣ Track Quality Over Quantity

Instead of just measuring new leads or revenue, track how many projects felt energizing, how many clients came from referrals, or how often your work aligned with your mission.

3️⃣ Define Your Own Success Markers

Maybe success is being able to log off at 4pm. Or working from anywhere. Or finally launching that digital product. It’s your business—your metrics should reflect your vision.

Becoming Purpose-Driven

Your Business Should Support You

You don’t have to be a traveler to benefit from a business that’s built to move.

Maybe your “movement” is pivoting into a new offer.

Maybe it’s parenting while running your business.

Maybe it’s just the dream of working fewer hours without losing impact.

Ask yourself:

✨ Is your cash flow steady enough to give you peace, even in uncertain seasons?

✨ Are your systems supporting your lifestyle, or demanding too much of it?

✨ Are you holding onto ways of working that no longer match who you’re becoming?

If you’re craving more flexibility, this is your month.

Current Services

Wherever you are in the world—or in your business—I hope this month inspires you to build a business that fits your version of freedom.

Here’s to structure with ease, purpose without pressure, and strategy that works wherever life takes you.

Shalom,
