The Growth Shift

Building A Business That Feels Lighter

Whether you have a team or run your business solo, the weight of responsibility can slowly become heavier than you realise.

You become the person holding everything together – every decision, every problem, every moving part.

Over time, the weight of running a business can leave you feeling stuck, stretched, and disconnected from the reason you started in the first place.

This Growth Shift session is an opportunity to step outside the day-to-day and reconnect with a broader perspective.

You’ll leave excited to take action again – with the pressure of business lifted from your shoulders. 

You’ll leave with greater clarity, fresh thinking, honest conversations, and practical actions you can implement right away.

Most importantly, you’ll be reminded that you don’t have to carry it all alone.

Because growth shouldn’t feel like a burden. It should create more freedom – for you and your business.

The Growth Shift will give you perspective, clarity, honest conversations, and tangible action items to take back into your business.

The shifts we’ll explore in this session:

  • Why your business feels heavier than it should (even when things are going well) 
  • The hidden roles you’ve unconsciously held on to (and how to let them go) 
  • How to balance growth, effort, and leadership in a way that brings you more time and freedom 
  • Where to put your time and energy this month 
  • How to have more ease and momentum in your business — without being the central node holding it all together.

“…an opportunity to step outside the day-to-day and reconnect with a broader perspective.”

Suzi Dafnis

Hi there. I’m Suzi Dafnis, CEO at HerBusiness. My BIG passion is helping women business owners to grow and scale their business, so that they can create their ideal lifestyle and make a difference in the world. Every day I am inspired by the more than 30,000 amazing women (and men!) in our community and I love finding the best education, mentors, and resources from around the globe, to help them get the skills, knowledge, and support they need to succeed. It’s been my privilege to lead HerBusiness (formerly The Australian Businesswomen’s Network) for the past 23 years (two+ decades – WOW!) because, whilst I’ve enjoyed success in business, I’ve also experienced the highs and the lows – sometimes you can feel on top of the world and in control and other times you can feel isolated, exhausted and stuck. What has made the biggest difference for me has always been having great people around me and having a lifelong commitment to learning. That’s why I am so passionate about the work we do here at HerBusiness – providing a Connection Network for women in business to get the mentors, contacts, referrals, knowledge, and skills they need to grow their confidence, make more money, build their businesses, expand their network and create the lives they love. My entrepreneurial journey started in the spare room of my Sydney apartment in 1994 when my business partner and I started a boutique events company that represented speakers and authors from the USA, here in Australia. Over the years I’ve grown multiple multi-million dollar businesses in the events, publishing and education niches – with teams in Australia, New Zealand, and the USA. Not everything has worked and there has been a degree of trial and error, and a lot of bumps in the road. But I have always had a strong commitment to always surrounding myself with great mentors and like-minded peers – a Connection Network that I can depend on and who can depend on me to be there for them too. I truly do what I love, every day.
