Summary
In this penultimate episode of the Small Business Podcast, I speak to Hannah Roper, a clarity coach and mentor for small business owners.
We dive into Hannah's fascinating career journey and discuss practical tips for juggling multiple roles while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We then focus on Hannah's unique approach to goal setting, which includes financial, creative, and impact goals - and how all goal setting doesn't have to start at the traditional points in the year!
It's a long one (there was too much good stuff to edit out!), so grab a drink, listen on your commute, or a lunchtime walk. And we'd love to hear from you in the comments!
