Exploring #WildIdeas with Mary McHugh: mindfulness in counselling, or are we talking retreats in untouched Irish nature?

When I talk about my sewing business I usually share the part where I feel torn apart by client demands and work myself into burnout, and the insights that led to a massive turnaround (and ultimately to me becoming a coach). In that story the early days sound like, "Orders just started to come in .." and today I want to talk about what that really looked like. If you're in the early stages of your business and feel like you're pushing a huge boulder up a hill this episode is for you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dont-just-learn-create/message

How much effort are you prepared to put into your business before you expect a return in the form of some type of recognition? How long before you feel disappointed and discouraged when you don't get the support or validation you hoped for? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dont-just-learn-create/message

Most of my guests on the Passion Business Podcast share how they started in one direction and then something happened, they met someone or learned something that put them onto an entirely different path. So I want to remind you that you won’t be able to see the entire path ahead of you. The path isn’t straight and you can only see the next corner. You have to walk to that corner to see what’s behind it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dont-just-learn-create/message

It's not a race!

Building your business isn't a series of steps to follow to reach your goals. It's more beautiful and exciting than that. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dont-just-learn-create/message

It's not a straight line, it's a spiral

There is one thing that winds me up every time I open Facebook and come across an ad aimed at people building their own business ...
