You don’t have to be all over social media to start your business.

My amazing client, Lisa Nunn, refused to use socials to promote her new business but didn’t know how else to find clients. She had the skills and qualifications but no pipeline, which is why she started to work with me.

With hard work, dedication and vision you can create the baddass business of your dreams, just like Lisa.

This week I have to talk to you about burnout.

It is something I have experienced first-hand over the last few weeks, and I want to be totally open with you about it.

First of all, burnout is not a sign of weakness. It is something that shows how resilient, resourceful and amazing you are.

So, I want to take you through why I have been struggling with it, how you can recognise the signs of burnout and how to overcome it.

Talking about this is so important. And I want to empower you to prioritize your mental health and resilience in the face of challenges that you will face as a business owner.
