Business owners aren’t always visionaries. But visionaries are almost always business owners. Here’s why.

There are business owners and there are visionaries.

Business owners aren’t always visionaries.
But visionaries often become business owners.

Here’s why.

Business owners are people who think they know how to do something better than everyone else. They prefer their way. Sometimes, business owners are passionate, but often what they’re passionate about is making more money, feeding their family, or generating wealth. Totally fine. This doesn’t make business owners selfish - it just means they are people who want a lot of autonomy over their path. They are also people who trust in their own brilliance. They know how to sense the potential in something raw and make it work.

A business, at its best, is here to bridge a gap, to provide a meaningful offering, to serve a community.

A business, at its worst, is here to fuel addictive consumerism, accumulate more than is necessary, and exploit peoples’ needs.

Businesses are always temporary. And they are also material. They exist in the context of space and time.

Often, they are only relevant for a generation. They survive for a lifetime, maybe two, but usually, not much longer than that.

A vision, however, is eternal. It is a culmination of the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of billions of sentient beings, converging into a consciousness that is now manifest as you.

As a visionary (which you are) — you’re here to open up unprecedented portals of healing and care. Portals that didn’t exist before you came here. Portals that will literally change the course of humanity and shift our trajectory for good.

A big responsibility? Yes. And also one you’ll need a lot of freedom to pull off.

Visionaries often become business owners because we know in order to devote ourself to this healing path, we also need creative ways to sustain our lives. We aren’t business owners because we love business but because it is the most strategic way for us to start living our legacies now.

Traditional business advice is geared towards people who want instant gratification and results in the now. Often those results are the ability to buy a sense of safety and security which, in the context of a collapsing world, actually doesn’t exist.

But visionaries are wiser than that. We understand our visions are eternal, and we know when they are implemented strategically, ethically, and lovingly, we will experience the fruits of our labor in every single lifetime.

Visionaries aren’t in a rush.

Yet. We need to survive.

So we follow the marketing fads and listen to “experts” in the business field. We think our job is to get as good as business as them.

But our job is actually to get into a flow of business that works for us. That allows us to tend to and sustain ourselves and our visions.

That’s why we have to build businesses on our own terms.

Visionaries are almost always business owners because we need a special set up. We have concerns, curiosities, and commitments that people don’t always understand. While everyone has the capacity to be a visionary, not everyone opens themselves up to the possibility in this lifetime. What they choose is none of our business. But what we’ve chosen is ours.

To be a visionary is to be a person who cares about getting the evolution of our collective consciousness back on track.

It is to be a person who brings less harm to the world and more good.

It is to understand the smallness and the bigness of your efforts simultaneously.

Not all business owners carry these traits.

To be a visionary requires time and space for creativity. A connection to spirit or source. Faith in yourself. A love for all species./

To be a business owner requires, on some levels, a sense of logic. A capacity to sync up with the times.

But not to conform to them. To navigate them as wisely and strategically as you can.

To set you up to do more good.

That’s why traditional business advice will always fall flat for you, beloved visionary-turned-business-owner — or, business-owner-turned-visionary (because that reverse osmosis can also happen too!)

That’s why you’ll always need something deeper, wider, and more expansive than the mainstream can provide.

I know you’re here to help usher humanity into a new paradigm of healing in care - because everyone who finds me goes on to do that eventually anyways. Chances are you’re already on your way there.

When you’re ready to tap into the support you need, I’m here.

With love and care,

M.
