Episode 33 - Why you should invest in yourself through Self Development right now GF!
Hi guys and welcome back to Be The Girl Podcast. Today I’m jumping on the pod to chat about Personal Development. We are into the February already which is kind of crazy! So it really is the time to get serious about the next steps we want to take in 2021 and actually start putting some things into action. For me personally, this year I am making Personal Development a priority. It is something that I have always done and been interested in throughout my career and through starting The Daily Pretty and this podcast but I really didn’t do that much last year – and I definitely felt the effects of this and the difference in my motivation and also having the confidence to push out of my comfort zone and go after new things both personally and professionally. SO, the universe was listening and The Bundle Co. reached out and asked TDP to collaborate on their latest bundle which is all about self improvement and development – I knew it felt right and was meant to be. In this episode I chat all about The Bundle Co, more on Personal Development and why you should invest in yourself right now more than ever, my top highlights for the bundle and how I personally complete bundles (this will be my third!) and how they have been critical to my career and growing The Daily Pretty and this podcast? Ready to invest in yourself and realise your true capabilities right now GF? Get you bundle here! Available until 14 Feb 2021 only!

All about Sophie...
I’m a serial entrepreneur and business strategist who helps women make the shift from solopreneur to CEO so they can scale their business with ease. I work with female entrepreneurs looking to streamline their strategy, create scalable systems and develop a CEO mindset. After working in corporate for 8 years, I decided to set up, scale and subsequently exit a successful e-commerce business, learning what works (and what really doesn't!) in the process. This then led me to build my current business - a multiple six-figure service-based business with multiple revenue streams which allows me to travel the world and run my business from anywhere. I have developed a CEO mindset with a real belief in both myself and the ladies that I work with, and want to share my how to and biggest tips all with you!
