How do you actually get your business back on track when you’ve lost a bit of momentum?

In this episode of Business Class, Vicky is getting brutally honest about how to lock the fuck in for the rest of 2026 and taking you through the exact business reset she’s using to get herself, her team and her business focused again.

From setting SMART goals and auditing your business to reviewing your finances, productivity, sales, ideal customer profile and personal life, this episode is essentially a full end-of-year business audit you can do alongside her.

Vicky shares the questions she asks herself (and her team) to work out what’s going well, what isn’t, what’s been put off and what needs to change, plus plenty of honest admissions about her own productivity, finances, competitors, sales process and business blind spots.

Inside the episode:
• How to set SMART goals for the final three months of the year
• Why you keep putting things off and how to create your own leverage
• How to do a bird’s-eye-view audit of your entire business
• The importance of reviewing your finances, team and offers
• How to create a bank of testimonials and positive customer feedback
• The seven areas of life every business owner should assess
• Productivity tips including time blocking, traffic-light lists and the Circle Method
• How to identify your ideal customer profile (ICP)
• Questions to ask about your offer, competitors, pain points and positioning
• How to review your current sales systems and customer acquisition
• Why your first DM or email can make or break an outreach opportunity
• Using the AIDA framework for better sales and outreach
• How to build a database of people you meet and potential leads
• Why stepping back and auditing your business can reignite motivation

Plus, Vicky talks about recovering from the intensity of preparing for her TED Talk, her recent Forbes 30 Under 30 achievement, the realities of running a growing business, and why sometimes being too comfortable can actually leave you feeling stuck.

This is your sign to stop winging it, grab a notebook and spend a few hours properly looking at where your business is right now and where you want it to go next.
