We made it to the final episode of our Summer Series and THANK YOU for being here, listening, sharing and connecting. These first 10 episodes have been incredible, and I can’t wait to come back in September after a little break with even more goodness, including guests!!
Today I’m reflecting on 10 things I’ve learned about myself this summer. I’ll be discussing lessons in business, and marketing as well as the importance of community and my struggle to trust my body. We’ll of course be talking about how I’ve felt both physically and emotionally this summer and what my plans are for The Culture Of It All!
Takeaways:
Building and growing a business involves challenges such as being visible and authentic, but it's important to recognise that personal experiences and struggles can impact the journey.
Creating content and building a community can be fulfilling and meaningful, and it's important to focus on serving a purpose and facilitating conversations.
Trusting your body is a journey, and it's important to explore movement and activities without fear of judgement or self-sabotage.
Embracing our inner child or teenager and rediscovering passions from the past can bring joy and a sense of self-discovery.
Being prepared for hot weather and advocating for one's needs can lead to a more comfortable and enjoyable summer.
It's important to cut ties with traditional business practices that don't align with personal values and to take the time to create something meaningful and authentic.
Journal prompts can be helpful for self-reflection and personal growth, allowing for exploration of confidence, boundaries, preparedness, self-sabotage, and fears.
