Listen "S5 E7: How and why I changed my business mindset - Solo episode with Caroline"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode I’m talking about something that I think is a constant, if not battle, then area for improvement: mindset. Mindset has been a hurdle that almost prevented me from achieving a business goal. But I was able to recognise it and work on it. So I’m talking about: - How I recognised my mindset was the problem - The goal it was hindering - The steps I took to change it - The support and resources I turned to (a surprise to me too!)
