Send us a textEllen Williams host of Time To Press Pause and CEO of The Salient Strategist, Inc. welcomes Paige Arnof-Fenn, founder and CEO of the global branding firm Mavens and Moguls. Paige describes how a six-year period of family caregiving and estate responsibilities forced her to step away from the demanding pace she had maintained early in her entrepreneurial journey. Despite initial fears that scaling back would harm her thriving business, Paige found the opposite to be true: taking time away for personal priorities revealed that “less could be more.” Rather than constantly networking and chasing clients, she shifted her focus to deeper and more meaningful conversations with fewer contacts. This approach allowed her to maintain strong client relationships, secure new business more organically, and improve her own well-being. Additionally, Paige reflects on the lessons learned from both her family crisis pause and the collective pause of the recent pandemic. She emphasizes that genuine self-care—such as prioritizing exercise, building quality relationships, and dedicating time to activities aligned with one’s values—can lead to stronger professional outcomes and a more fulfilling life. For other business leaders and entrepreneurs, she recommends proactively creating space for these pauses rather than waiting for a crisis, urging them to remain clear on their core values and long-term goals. To learn more about Paige, visit mavensandmoguls.com To learn more about Ellen, visit thesalientstrategist.com
