  • Episode #14 - End-of-year pep talk (2023 has been A LOT)
    Nov 22 2023

    This spontaneous episode is for you if you've been feeling like "nothing's working" in your business. I help you look at 2023 as a whole, and remind you how proud you should be of yourself!

    I could have gone into a lot more detail about the hideous things going on in the world, but this was intended to be a very short and off-the-cuff episode (focusing on you!) so please don't take my omission of those details as ignorance or flippancy.

    Details of the new year workshop I mention briefly at the end: https://sophiecarefullcoaching.com/store
