What we learnt in 2019

DO YOU SET ASIDE TIME TO REFLECT ON THE YEAR PASSED?

Do you believe in the seasons of business?

Is it ever OK to quit?

And when should you listen to your ego?

“I stopped focusing on what I looked like, my sales, my following. Instead, I showed up and stayed true to what I had planned. And that's how I removed all the ego and stress around my launch.”
- Rachel Kurzyp

TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • The importance of reflecting on the year ahead and year passed
  • When you should listen to your ego and when you should ignore it
