Episode 12: 10 things I wish I knew before starting my business

What they don't tell you… is that soooo much goes into creating a soul-led business. In this episode, I'm sharing with you the 10 things I learnt the hard way at the beginning of my business, so you don't have to. From the structural back end of your business, like taxes and building your team, to how you can utilize social media platforms to scale your business whilst creating spaciousness in your nervous system. The truth is, it's very common to feel overwhelmed, especially if you don't (yet) have a team. I'm grateful to have had business mentors from day 1 and a VA from month 3. However, even then, it wasn't easy to manage so many elements of running a business while tending to my nervous system and acclimating to holding so much more responsibility. In this episode, I vulnerably share how my partner at the time actually pointed out that… I was giving all of my energy to my business and putting the relationship in the 2nd place. It was the wake up call I needed to change the way I was running my business.  If you're in this game for the long run, implementing these 10 tips will help your business to grow sustainably and with ease, where you don't have to sacrifice anything you hold dear in life. 📣 Remember to rate and leave a review for this podcast.
