A practical, no-fluff session to help you set goals that actually work for you, not against you
Feel like traditional goal setting just doesn’t work for you? You’re not alone.
If you’ve ever scribbled down big business goals in January and promptly forgotten them by February (say hello again to to-do list chaos) this workshop is for you.
This workshop isn’t about vision boards, intentions or vague affirmations. It’s a real-world session for real-life business owners, the kind who wear all the hats, juggle all the tasks. It’s for those who want their business to support their life, not swallows it whole.
