In today's episode, we un-pick the 'What's your price?' mindset of a couple, chat through how you can get your worth across in a positive way and also tell you six ways in which you can respond to those price shopper couples without it just being about the price.
Enjoy!

E52: Overcoming Self Doubt
Running your own business is one of the most difficult jobs. We can work 24/7 to be getting visible, noticed and pour a lot into our clients too.

Self-sabotage is among the most prominent reasons why most business owners quit following their dreams.

On today's episode we talk about the 3 different ways self-doubt can show up for you in your business and what practical things you can do to overcome those feelings and show up and grow your business.
