About this listen

Welcome to "Focus on the Fun Stuff" the podcast where we dive into what it takes to focus on the things you love in your business and enjoy the journey.

We'll explore how to get more of those days where you're in the flow, loving what you're doing and using your unique abilities and passions.

Many business owners find themselves down in the weeds, overwhelmed, stuck at a certain revenue level, limited by team size, or constantly time-poor.


Often, it's a combination of all these challenges.


If you’ve ever looked at another successful, ambitious happy business owner and wondered ‘How did they do that?’

I’ve totally done the same thing.

And Focus on the fun Stuff explores how they did it.

    Feeling overwhelmed even though you’ve technically delegated? You’re not alone.

    In this episode of Focus on the Fun Stuff, Emma Mills unpacks the real reason your delegation isn’t working — and what to do instead. From “phantom delegation” to the most common time-sucking traps business owners fall into, Emma shares her proven PAUSE framework to help you reclaim your energy, clarity, and calendar.

    You’ll learn:

    • The 3 hidden delegation mistakes that keep you stuck
    • Why outsourcing tasks doesn't equal outsourcing responsibility
    • How to use the PAUSE framework to finally win your week
    • The mindset shift that turns your PA or VA into your secret weapon

    If you're a founder, CEO, or small business owner ready to hand over the right tasks (without dropping the ball), this one’s for you.

    Ever feel like you know exactly what to do in your business—but you’re still not doing it?

    You’re not lazy. You don’t need another strategy.

    You need a shift in how you think.

    This week on Focus on the Fun Stuff, I’m joined by Terry Gormley, founder of The Mindshaper Academy and creator of the life-changing course The Will to Act.

    Terry helps business owners bridge the gap between knowing and doing. We dive deep into:

    Why your mindset—not your to-do list—is holding you back

    The science behind overwhelm (and George Miller’s ‘magic number 7’ theory)

    How to instantly change your emotional state and get into momentum

    Why most business owners are “winging it” daily—and how to fix it

    How to design your life backwards—starting with the end in mind

    If you’re tired of shelf-help, endless plans, and zero progress—this episode is your wake-up call.

    Hit play, shift your state, and finally take action.
