In this episode of Online Business Uncovered, I’m sitting down with business mentor and founder of the Business Booster Academy, Steve Bidson, for a really open and honest conversation about what it actually takes to build a successful online business.

Steve shares his entrepreneurial journey so far… from working within family businesses and offering one-to-one consulting, to making the leap into the online space and building a membership community. We talk candidly about the highs, the setbacks, the lessons learned the hard way and why failure often plays a much bigger role in success than we like to admit.

Together, we dive into the realities of launching and evolving an online business like making tough pivots, choosing the right tech (and ditching what doesn’t work), understanding your numbers, letting go of perfection and the power of surrounding yourself with the right support.

We also talk about the quieter side of entrepreneurship like burnout, self-doubt and those moments where running a business can feel pretty lonely.

If you’re building a business and wondering whether you’re on the right path (or questioning yourself along the way) then this episode is packed with practical insights, mindset shifts and reassurance that you’re not alone in the journey.

In this episode of Online Business Uncovered, I’m talking about one of the biggest things I see holding entrepreneurs back from real business growth… fear.

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in planning mode, endlessly tweaking your ideas or staying busy with tasks that feel productive but don’t actually move your business forward then just know - you’re not alone! I see this all the time with business owners who want to grow, create digital products or build scalable income but feel stuck at the same level.

In this episode, I share why fear isn’t usually the real problem. More often, it disguises itself as busyness, perfectionism or waiting until you feel “ready.” I talk about how fear keeps you comfortable, familiar and stuck and how that comfort zone can quietly cost you momentum, confidence and growth in your business.

I’ll walk you through how to recognise when fear is running the show, how to reframe it and how to use it as a signal that you’re actually on the edge of growth — not failure.

Whether you’re thinking about launching your first digital product, growing your audience, making a bold business move or stepping into the next level of your business then this episode will help you stop overthinking and start taking meaningful action.

I also share real stories, practical insights and encouragement to help you stop letting fear make your decisions and start building a business that supports more freedom, clarity and growth (without burning yourself out in the process).

If your business feels heavier than it should right now, this episode is for you.

Most entrepreneurs don’t struggle because they lack ideas… they struggle because they have too many. Too many offers in progress, too many directions pulling their focus and too much noise making everything feel harder than it needs to be.

In this episode, I’m sharing why you don’t need another idea - you need one clear direction.

We’ll talk about:

• Why more ideas often lead to more overwhelm and burnout
• How scalable offers can actually simplify your business
• The hidden cost of trying to do everything at once
• The mindset shift from being busy to being intentional

I also share my own experience of stepping back, choosing one clear focus and how that decision changed the way I built my business… creating scalable income without relying on doing more.

If you’re craving clarity, simplicity, and a calmer way to grow your business then this episode will help you refocus and move forward with intention.

Listen in and discover a simpler way to build a scalable business.
