Jeanne Omlor joins Cynthia for a straight‑talk conversation about moving from hesitation to action. We explore how to build a values‑aligned business (or team) by choosing clarity over complexity, getting crystal‑clear on the offer, who it serves, and the result it creates—and then using simple, repeatable systems you will actually stick to. Jeanne shares candid lessons from building online after previous offline success, the mindset shift behind her mantra “if not now, when?”, and why service‑led selling beats performative hustle. You will leave with practical prompts to make decisions faster, reduce friction in your workflow, and lead with courage instead of delay.

Key Takeaways

-Clarity before complexity: define your offer, audience, and promised result.

– Decision beats delay: small, consistent actions outpace waiting for perfect conditions.

– Keep systems simple: use tools and rhythms you will actually maintain.

– Lead with service: ethical, value‑driven selling builds trust and results.

– Stories > slogans: real client outcomes anchor credibility.

– Courage is a practice: notice fear, act anyway, and iterate.
