🎧 Episode Summary:

We have all had those slow periods in business. You know the ones that have us questioning everything from if we made a good decision to going into business for ourselves, or if we are even good at what we do. These moments can shake the foundation of what we are building, but they can also be a much needed gift. The choice is up to us my friend!

In this episode I share my own story of facing one of the slowest, and scariest periods in my business. I talk about how easy it is for slow seasons to trigger panic, self-doubt, and unhelpful habits like comparison and blame. But I also share the mindset shift that turned that time into an opportunity for clarity, realignment, and creative growth.

☕ Red flag warnings that may be your sign your business may need a pivot.
