Every Day I’m Puzzlin’: What Your Business Might Be Missing (Solo Episode)
Text Kristen your thoughts or feedback about the show
Running a business can feel a lot like working on a puzzle.
You’ve got pieces everywhere — ideas, tools, workflows, client needs — and you know they’re supposed to fit together… but sometimes the picture just doesn’t feel complete.
With National Puzzle Day coming up, I’m leaning into one of my favorite metaphors and breaking down how puzzles and business are surprisingly similar — especially for solopreneurs navigating the messy middle of growth.
In this episode, I’m sharing:
- Why January can feel overwhelming (even when nothing is “wrong”)
- A simple PUZZLE framework to help you figure out what’s missing
- Three different ways people naturally approach building a business
- Why support systems don’t replace your thinking — they protect your progress
- How to stop feeling scattered and start placing the right next piece
If your business feels heavy, incomplete, or just slightly off right now, this episode will help you zoom out, get grounded, and move forward with more clarity.
