None of us are immune to transitions—it’s just that they seem start piling up at “mid-life”. Olympic gold medalist and performance coach Joe Jacobi shares his story and how you too can navigate resistance and uncertainty to pursue purpose, performance and impact:
What working as part of a two-person boat teaches you about collaboration (and it’s probably not what you think).
Why sometimes winning comes down to making fewer mistakes than your peers—and correcting them more quickly.
How focusing on the unique ways your experiences and expertise can help others will magnify your impact.
Learning to appreciate where you are “in the river” and navigate toward what you value most.
When seeking alliances as a Soloist can provide more opportunities for fruitful collaboration.

A quick Amazon search shows over 50,000 productivity titles—probably because as a society, we are obsessed with being productive. But what does productivity look like for Soloists?
My theory—and I’m curious for your experience—is that many Soloists approach productivity a bit differently:
My own (positive) experience with the classic Getting Things Done—and what seemed missing for Soloists (hint: joy + impact).
What happens when you lighten your cognitive load in organizing your work and life.
How some contemporary productivity books, especially Slow Productivity (Cal Newport) and 4,000 Weeks (Oliver Burkeman) are addressing a non-hustle and deeply satisfying way to work.
Why slow is often better than fast and less can be more.
The role of hitting your “enough” goal consistently in re-thinking how you want to work.

The value of experimenting and failing—or succeeding—fast.
How he 5x’ed his prices in a single quarter by focusing on the value he was delivering to his ideal clients.
When to shoot for big leaps vs. incremental growth (and why you don’t necessarily need a big audience to build a 6-7 figure Soloist business).

RESOURCES FOR SOLOISTS
The Soloist Women Mastermind (Apply January 2024) A structured eight-month mastermind with an intentionally small group of hand-picked women soloists grappling with—and solving—the same kinds of challenges.
10 Ways To Grow Revenue As A Soloist (Without Working More Hours): most of us have been conditioned to work more when we want to grow revenue—but what if we just worked differently?
The Soloist Women community: a place to connect with like-minded women (and join a channel dedicated to your revenue level).
The Authority Code: How to Position, Monetize and Sell Your Expertise: equal parts bible, blueprint and bushido. How to think like, become—and remain—an authority.

Moving from traditional custom projects to productized services can completely change how you run your business: think more revenue, more free time and more joy in your work and your life. No BS Agency founder Pia Silva did it for her own branding agency and now teaches others to do the same.
We had a candid conversation about:
What happens when your business is successful financially, but not sustainable.
Why you want to evaluate both the revenue and profit of each service before deciding to launch—and how to build your confidence in making new offers.
The mindset and behavioral shifts required to shrink 3-6-12 month projects down to just a few days.
Your freedom calculator—Pia’s formula to design and price your work so that you have “enough” revenue, free time and flexibility for the life you want.
What it’s like to shift from serving clients to teaching and coaching other people like you (and why Pia went all in immediately).
