Girls That Startup: How to Manage Busine...

Girls That Invest
About this episode

Welcome back to Girls That Startup, a weekly series where we spill the tea on how to create a seven-figure side hustle - because no one saves their way to wealth. You’re joined by Sim, a seven-figure business owner, and Maia, an entrepreneur in the making.


This week, Sim and Maia discuss the concept of business lifestyle creep, emphasising the importance of knowing your values to make informed spending decisions. They suggest unfollowing influencers who make you feel pressured to spend more, recommend using accounting software or tracking expenses manually to stay accountable, and stress the value of having diverse business owner friends for realistic benchmarks. The conversation highlights the need for balance and self-awareness in managing business expenses.
