You’re building something BIG, right?! I know it’s something meaningful, purposeful… otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this! Do tell me: "Does what you’re building feel like it’s actually yours?"

Most purpose-driven founders I speak with say their business feels like a grind… How is that for you? When growth feels forced instead of flowing… if success looks great on paper but doesn’t feel right… It’s good that we have this talk.

Because in my playbook struggle isn’t proof of progress. It’s proof of unclarity and misalignment. And the way that ‘struggling’ is being praised is unsettling. I want to fix that.

You took the Founder-Led (R)evolution Scorecard for a reason.
(If you didn't already: it’s 5 questions, here is the link: [insert link])


Your Score Is Merely a Signal
If you’re here, triggered by the title: “How to Fix Business Misalignment”. I’m guessing your results weren’t all fun and joy.

🔴 Red Flags?
​Something feels fundamentally off. You’ve built something that works—but it’s not really yours.

🟡 Yellow Flags?
You’re doing well, but you keep feeling like you’re missing something.

🟢 Green Flags?
You’re in flow—and already looking for the next level!

First things first: Your score isn’t about judgment. It’s about clarity and a starting point in your Roadmap to (R)evolution.

Misalignment creates the illusion of progress. It keeps you **busy, hustling, seemingly moving forward, but never quite arriving. So let’s break it down, so you can take the wheel and steer towards your desired destination. Because you deserve better than friction.


Why Most Founders Get Stuck (And Don’t Even Realize It)
Most business advice will tell you: Work harder. Try more strategies. Push through. You’ll get there by following the steps “I” did!

And for a while, that might work. Until it doesn’t. Because here’s the truth: You don’t build momentum by adding more weight. You build momentum by removing what’s slowing YOU down. And if something in your business isn’t working for you, it’s working against you.

Misalignment is expensive. It costs you energy, clarity, and time.

Scaling something that isn’t fully yours doesn’t create freedom—it magnifies frictions and frustration.

Let’s be real for a moment:
- Ever hit a revenue goal but still felt… off?
- Ever launched something “proven” but hated delivering it?
- Ever kept pushing forward even when something in you said: This isn’t it?

Why should that even be “normal.” It’s not a problem of effort. It’s a problem of alignment. A sign that you’re trying to force a business model that wasn’t built for you and your business. So instead of forcing harder… Let’s fix what’s causing the friction.


The 5 Core Growth Friction Points
Every founder who struggles with alignment is stuck in one (or more) of these five areas.

1. FIT → Does your business actually fit YOU?
✅ Do you wake up feeling like this is fully yours?
✅ Or do you feel like you’re running a business designed for who actually?

👉 If Fit isn’t right… You start to feel like a guest in your own brand. You show up, but it’s not really you. And here’s the thing: You can’t fake fit. Either your business fits you, or you’re constantly twisting yourself to fit it.

🚀 Your next move? Identify what feels off—because that’s where your real brand lives.

2. FUEL → Does your business energize you—or drain you?
✅ After a full workweek, do you feel inspired… or exhausted?
✅ Are you working in your zone of genius—or grinding through tasks that kill momentum?

👉 If Fuel isn’t right… Every task starts to feel heavy. Even the parts you used to love.
But: A business shouldn’t drain—it should charge you. And if every step forward feels like you’re running on empty, something needs to change. Right?!

🚀 Your next move? Identify the parts that feel effortless—because that’s where your greatest leverage lives.

3. FULFILL → Is this actually the success you want?
✅ If no one knew you were the founder, would you still love your work?
✅ Does this business bring you joy—or just numbers?

👉 If Fulfill isn’t right… You start questioning your own success. You have more, but it doesn’t feel like more. Because there’s a difference between making progress and making meaning. And when you’re truly aligned? Success feels like it hits home.

🚀 Your next move? Stop chasing numbers and start chasing what moves you.

4. FLOW → Does growth comes natural—effortless?
✅ Is your business compounding effortlessly—or do you have to push for every inch of progress?
✅ Are you building from alignment—or are you pulling and pushing your way forward?

👉 If Flow isn’t right… You feel like your success is fragile. If you’re not actively pushing, it all falls apart. And let’s be real: That’s not freedom. That’s a treadmill.

🚀 Your next move? Build an ecosystem that lets momentum carry you forward—even when you take a step back.

5. FORCE → What happens if you stop trying to keep pushing through?
✅ Would your business keep growing… or stop the second you step back?
✅ Does marketing, selling, and scaling feel easy—or like an uphill battle?

👉 If Force isn’t right… Projects, launches, etc. feel like hard work. You feel like you’re chasing demand instead of designing it. Here’s the thing: The right business grows because of you, not in spite of you.

🚀 Your next move? Find where the friction is—because the moment you remove it, everything changes.
