We’re heading into Q4—the final stretch of the year—and whether your business has felt smooth or messy, this is your chance to reset, refocus, and finish the year strong. But before you make a big plan, you need to know where your time and energy are really going.

In this episode of How to Grow My Small Business, I’m walking you through a practical exercise to audit your time, your energy, and your money makers so you can make better decisions about what to keep, what to delegate, and what to cut before heading into Q4.

Because here’s the truth: if you don’t know where your time is going, you can’t manage it. And if you don’t know what drains your energy, you can’t protect it. Both are essential to running a small business that doesn’t leave you exhausted and overwhelmed.

This is an episode you’ll want to grab a notebook for!

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• How to track your time (and the surprising places it might actually be going)

• Why energy is just as important as hours when planning your week

• How to identify the money-making activities in your business

• The 3 categories every task should fall into: prioritize, delegate, or cut

• How to align your time and energy with your top Q4 priorities so you end the year strong

Quotes from the episode:

• “If you don’t know where your time is going, you can’t manage it. And if you don’t know what drains your energy, you can’t protect it.”

• “Not all hours are equal—some tasks energize you, others drain you. Build your calendar around energy, not just time.”

• “When you know your money makers, you can prioritize what actually moves your business forward and stop wasting energy on the rest.”

If you’re ready to finish Q4 with focus instead of distraction, this episode will give you the clarity and tools to do it.
