So many founders are hustling for “right now”, cash flow, quick wins, the next launch, without asking the question that changes everything: Will this business still serve me and my mission years from today? In this solo episode, I share what I’ve been seeing in recent Human Design readings and strategy sessions: brilliant, heart-led entrepreneurs building patchwork offers, chasing momentum, and waking up misaligned… not because they don’t care, but because no one taught them to plan for forever.

I’ll walk you through how to zoom out, name your true mission, and reverse-engineer a business model that honors your Human Design, your life, and your long-term vision, so your actions today compound toward legacy, not burnout.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn

• Now vs. Forever: Why optimizing for today without a future lens creates misalignment later.
• Mission First: A simple contemplation to surface what you’re truly here to build.
• Design-Driven Strategy: How to apply your Human Design to choose scalable, sustainable models.
• Avoiding Patchwork Businesses: Common traps (band-aid offers, “just for now” pivots) and how to course-correct.
• Foundation for Legacy: Practical steps to align your current actions with your 2-, 5-, and 10-year vision.

When you build from your mission forward, and let your Human Design inform the model, you stop solving for “right now” and start compounding toward a business that feels good, pays well, and lasts.

If you’re ready to move beyond the next-sprint mindset, this one’s your roadmap.
