    Do you ever find yourself working at capacity, on the verge of burnout, and still not seeing the results in your bank account? Well, enough. Time to put that strategy on the shelf. This week I'm looking at why working harder and harder is not the solution and more importantly, what is. Come on in! PS, If you're an impact-driven coach or consultant who's tried *all the things* to get your business off the ground, but you've never seemed to get much further than making £2.5k a month (and the impact you REALLY wanna be making is much nearer £10k+), then we NEED to chat! I have a space open for a 12-month, 1:1 client who's serious about wanting to hit their first six figures this year. If this is resonating with you, email me at theimperfectlife@kerrylyons.com for details on how to apply, or hit me up in my Instagram DMs. It's go time!
