🚨 Build Fast & Fall Hard: Why 96% of Businesses Will Never Reach This Milestone

Let’s have a real conversation—woman to woman.

You’re not just building a business.

You’re building something that your family is watching.

Your children are learning from your resilience—or your regret.

In a world that glorifies speed, let me offer you something better: stability.

Because speed will get you visibility… but foundation will give you longevity.

When you build fast, hoping to fix the cracks later, you're gambling with your time, energy, and legacy.

But if you're blessed enough to catch the flaws early—those moments of

"wait, that doesn’t look right"

—they’re not setbacks. They're safeguards. They’re the checkpoints that keep the structure sound when the storms come.

 The data paints a sobering picture (according to the U.S. Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor Statistics, and SBA):

**Only ~4% of U.S. businesses make it to $1M in annual revenue.

**67.6% never make it to their 5-year anniversary.

**89% of businesses operate with fewer than 20 employees, many with fewer than 3—leaving the owner vulnerable to burnout, legal oversights, and stagnation.

**And each year, over 300,000 businesses close due to legal and/or financial hardship.

Here’s what I want to make clear:

I’m not claiming to have all the answers.

But I am someone who’s committed to building with intention, who’s learned a lot while navigating the demanding roads of real estate and infinite wealth strategies.

I’m also someone committed to finding the answers by any means necessary—especially when it comes to building legacy the right way.

This post isn’t instruction—it’s reflection.

I’ve fallen into traps and patched holes mid-build. I’ve also seen what happens when you try to skip steps and "fix it later."

And if sharing what I’ve learned helps another woman avoid one of those traps—then we both win.

I’m here to grow with other women who are tired of chasing hacks and shortcuts, tired of surface-level fixes, and looking for someone who’s walking this path too—

someone who’s willing to share the load, exchange value, and encourage stamina.

If that’s you, DM me “FORTIFY.”

Let’s build better—together. Not because I have your answers, but because I’m in the trenches too.
