The Trades Accelerator: Women Leading Business Innovation

Episode 41: Start Small, Win Big: How Daily Goals Drive Real Progress

Dana Staszkiewicz and Melanie Sloane Season 2 Episode 41

In this episode, we dig into what “winning the day” actually means. It’s a phrase we throw around, but when no one defines it, people end up guessing. That leads to confusion, burnout, and a lot of busy work that doesn’t move things forward. We talk about how setting clear daily wins helps the whole team—from leadership to the front lines—understand what a good day really looks like.


We also talk about how things like communication, structure, and personal habits play a role. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about getting clear, staying focused, and knowing when to reset. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the chaos or unsure what “done” even means, this one’s for you.
