In one of the last episodes of the year, I want you to take stock of the good – and all the things you’re grateful for in your business journey this year.

This is a short and sweet episode where I ask you to do a gratitude exercise (and look into other practices you can do on a regular basis) to bring into focus the awesome things you have achieved this year.

So often we’re focused on the ‘next thing’, and we forget to really revel in the things we have done well – or the lessons we’ve learnt.
