    In this episode I talk a lot about conscious workload as we creep further into Q4. I also discuss how it's ok to do things differently than how you've done them in the past, even if they were successful. We are always changing so the action points of our business also get to change, if we wish and if they feel like we've outgrown them.   We control what we consume, what we say yes to and how we feel about all of it so… act accordingly!

    It's been over 2.5 years since I had the desire to create a podcast. I've always loved helping others see their full potential, especially when combined with my learning-through-doing storytelling.

We finally did it!    In this episode, I give you an overview of my background, how I came to be an artist and what led me to creating this podcast. We also get into what I've created each year as my business has grown and how I pivoted to continue to listen to my intuition as the years have gone by.   Want me to feature a specific topic or guest on the show?
