Do you struggle staying present? Do you have difficulty finding happiness where you are at in this moment?
Being an entrepreneur has so many benefits and rewards, it is a journey unlike any other. It challenges you to better yourself, to be introspective, to grow on all levels, to step outside of your comfort zone. It gives you freedom to decide when and where you work – even HOW you work.
But it also brings forward underlying limiting beliefs, fears and insecurities. We often want to do everything in our power to please everyone – our clients, audience and industry colleagues.
We remove ourselves from the present moment and focus our thoughts on what happened and what is coming.

In my chat with Brooklyn, we dive deep into the personal side of being an entrepreneur. How we can stay in our lane and avoid catching a dose of comparisonitis. We discuss her fears of not meeting her clients expectations but also how hard she can sometimes be on herself even though her clients were happy with her work!
She shares how she often needs a reminder to be present and celebrate her wins – big or small as like many of us, she is focused on the next goal. This was such an important point for myself in the conversation as I know we all struggle with this. Being present and happy in the now, showing yourself some praise for what you have accomplished before moving on to another goal.
So how do you navigate this? How do avoid the comparison game? How do show yourself grace and be happy with where you are at today? How do you set limits to create a healthy disconnect?
Well, grab yourself a cup of organic tea and maybe a notebook and tune in to hear Brooklyn’s experience and our thoughts on each topic. I loved having this chat with Brooklyn and hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
