In this episode, I share the five things I’d focus on if I were to have my first year in business all over again - the activities that will support sustainable growth, clarity, and strong foundations for further down the line.

🌱 In this episode, you’ll learn:

- Why shaping your ideal week early on matters (even if your calendar is still quiet)

- The value of building a network before you feel ready

- How to talk about what you do, even when your niche is still forming

- What simple metrics are worth tracking from day one

- Why focusing on one core offer can build momentum faster than spreading yourself thin

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a theme that is taking a prominent place in my business this year - simplicity as a way of building spaciousness and sustainability for the long term.

If you’re a service-based business owner (a coach, consultant, or wellness practitioner) who’s feeling stretched too thin or unsure where to focus next, this episode is for you.

I’ll walk you through five key principles that, in my opinion, support a more regenerative, values-aligned approach to business - including:

🌱 Why sustainability starts with relevance

🌱 How focus creates space for mastery

🌱 The importance of integration and rest

🌱 Designing a business that supports your nervous system

🌱 And why simplicity can be a powerful strategy

If you are someone who aspires to more depth, meaning and fulfilment in your work then take a listen. I'd love to know what you think.

What if the way you work and how you deliver your services is just as important as what you offer?

In this episode, I’m sharing my thoughts on how to build a business that actually feels good to run — one that’s not only sustainable for your clients, but also for you.

Whether you’re a coach, consultant, or wellness practitioner, I’ll walk you through the key questions I use to review whether an offer is truly working — for you, your clients, and the wider world.

This isn’t about starting from scratch or completely overhauling your business — it’s about making gradual, thoughtful tweaks that help your work feel more aligned, easeful, and effective.
