91. Lessons From Our Big Mistakes w/ Michelle Lynne

Episode notes

Send Katie a Text Message!! As this year comes to a close, I wanted to have a very honest conversation - one rooted in experience, not perfection. In this episode, I’m reflecting (with another seasoned firm owner- Michelle Lynne) on the mistakes we’ve made, the lessons we learned the hard way, and what actually matters when you’re trying to move your business forward with clarity instead of chaos. This isn’t about beating yourself up for what didn’t work. It’s about looking back clearly - without ego or shame - so you can recalibrate your direction, trust yourself again, and make smarter decisions as you head into 2026.
