I filmed this video while attending an event in Toronto in Canada a while ago – and it’s become one of those really important videos that I’ve shared over and over again both within my membership community and with clients. And it’s because it’s such an important message about something that I see holds people back in their business far…
READ POSTDid you start your business because you wanted to make a difference but you never imagined it would be this hard to get your first few paying clients? Maybe you’ve been jumping from one thing to the next without anything having a chance to get traction, and you can’t seem to settle on that “one thing” that works for you.…
READ POSTFive years ago I had the pleasure of visiting Australia and on my last day in Perth, I was interviewed on local radio RTR FM 92.1. It was supposed to be an interview about authentic sales but we got sidetracked onto a favourite topic of mine and ended up doing an impromtpu session on: How to build a business you’ll…
READ POSTOne of the most popular videos I’ve recorded was on Running a Business as a HSP (highly sensitive person). So many people replied to say that the video had hit a chord with them. It either helped them to realise that they are an HSP and to finally see why they struggle with certain things that others may take in…
READ POSTFor me it’s true to say that my first few years felt like navigating from inside a bank of fog. I didn’t have any sense of where I was going or what I really needed to do to get there. Even when things were “working” I often didn’t know why, or know what I was supposed to do next from…
READ POSTIt’s early September again, with that “back to school” feel – not only if you’ve got kids, but for all of us who took time off over the summer as we gear up ready to get back into the flow of work and business. There is one thing I am guaranteed to hear several times a day at the moment…
READ POSTThis blog article was originally written in July 2019 – but it’s just as important and relevant today as it was then: Last week I got back from my summer holiday – 2 weeks camping in Cornwall and Shropshire and then a few days with my family in Snowdonia. Over the years I’ve learned that taking a “proper” holiday (as…
READ POSTThis is the fourth and final post in a series of 4 blogs centered on creating a business you love. First, we looked at Understanding the 5 Stages of Business, then we dove into why Less is More of Marketing when you’re starting out, and from there we covered the importance of Choosing the Right Business Model for You. Hopefully…
READ POSTSo here we are, just 2 working days from the end of January, and like me you might be asking “where did that month just go?”. January for me has been focused on getting my Inner Circle Mastermind group up and running, and Jumpstart January within the Business from the Heart Membership, with a focus on Vision & Planning for…
READ POSTRecently I made a decision to do a big piece of what I call the “inner work”. In the earlier days of my business I made regular investments in shifting the subconscious blocks that were causing me to self-sabotage. Things like an unconscious fear of success because that might mean overwhelm and a relapse of my ME/CFS symptoms, and later…
READ POSTThere’s something I want to talk about today that I’m seeing a lot of right now and I’m really fearing for a lot of small business owners because of it. In fact it’s the thing I think is creating the most danger for a lot of the small business owners in my community – and I’m seeing it over and…
READ POSTWhen we start something new, we all start off at the beginning, with no skill or knowldge and a lot of “not knowing what we don’t know”. And business is no different. That doesn’t mean we are stupid, failures or not cut out to run a business. It’s normal to feel a bit at sea. And it’s not just you –…
