Use Your Business To Be The Change with Stephanie Malon-Rufi

The majority of women I work with have some element of social impact engrained in their business whether they know it or not. It is so valuable to not only run your business in a profitable way but in a way that generates change. This week’s episode 75 of Female Founders Breaking Boundaries is about using your business to be the change!

Have you ever felt like you were WAY too busy, stressed out, burnt out, and overwhelmed, so you were advised to delegate some tasks to take things off your plate and free up some time? Except, maybe it didn't work. If getting out of the day-to-day in your business was as simple as hiring more people, then why are you still feeling overwhelmed and burned out? You are not alone! Sometimes, simply delegating tasks doesn’t work and instead shifts your workload from “doing” to “managing.”

I invite you to use the exercise that our own C-Suite clients use to take the first step in turning your team into a well-oiled, self-managed machine- and get you out of the delegation catch-22. Download the exercise here to get started!

In this episode of Female Founders Breaking Boundaries, my guest Stephanie Malon-Rufi shares how she supports businesses in creating positive change in the world and actionable steps you can take right now to have a quality, profitable business while also making an impact. Some of the things Stephanie and I cover in this episode are:

• What social impact means and how it might show up in your business. 
• Understanding the full picture of what a socially impactful business looks like both from a financial perspective and from the bigger, community-centered perspective. 
• What you can do as a business owner to become more socially responsible. 
• Balancing an impactful and quality business. 
• Reframing this idea that profit is a negative word. 

I challenge you to just sit down and think of all of the ways you are already making a positive impact in your business that you may have not thought about and use that to get inspired and figure out where you can take that to the next step. 

Thanks for listening! Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of tools, advice, resources, support, and encouragement that resonates with the modern businesswoman and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
