From Inside the Hive

How many times have we said "I'll just do this first, and then I'll be ready..."?I'll just get the qualification, and then...I'll just get the logo right and then...I'll just lose 6lbs and then...I'm here to tell you to stop! If you wait til you feel ready, you'll just never do the thing!For our last episode of the series, I'm setting you a challenge... are you ready to take it?!

We are caught in a spiral of second guessing, of overthinking, of not making the damn decision!In this episode I'm sharing why making decisions as female founders can feel so bloomin' tricky. Even if you're not a female founder, there are some nuggets in here that can help you finally make a decision. Stay til the end. There's a key commitment that might make all the difference to the decision you're stuck on right now.Find out more about Uplifted - www.quietthehive.com/courses/uplifted

I've been thinking about you. I'm wondering how often you speak unkindly to yourself; in a way that we would never speak to our friends?

Sara Dalrymple is a sales trainer and mentor, helping show you how to promote your products and services without being "salesy" so that you book more clients and grow your business while keeping your integrity intact. I'm lucky enough to have been on one of Sara's programmes and love the driving force behind why she does what she does. Hear more about that, and her excellent advice to us all in this episode. This was a dream of a conversation and I know it will get you thinking...
