ABOUT THIS EPISODE
If you’re building something powerful but your backend feels messy, manual, or stuck in spreadsheets… this episode is for you!
In this episode I sat down with Mickela, founder of Glaciers to Grapevines, a luxury retreat company curating transformational experiences for high-achieving women in Italy, Morocco, and beyond.
When we first connected, her vision was clear. The demand was there. The retreats were booking.
But behind the scenes?!
• Excel tabs
• Manual follow-ups
• Scattered payment systems
• Messages living everywhere
• No centralized structure
In this episode, we unpack:
– What almost capped her growth
– The stress of running everything manually
– Why delegation felt scary
– How automation changed her confidence
– What structure actually frees you to do
If you’ve ever laid your head down at night wondering if something fell through the cracks, you’ll relate to this one.
Because vision isn’t the hard part.
