Candle maker Bec from Carnation Candles joins me on the podcast (for the second time) to discuss all things candles and her candle making journey. We last spoke over 12 months ago, so let's dive into Bec's journey and see what she's been up to and how her business has grown over the last year.

In this episode we chat about: - The importance of continuing to learn in your business (and how to do it without spending money). - How our identity can shift and unlock as we lean into being creative. - Why feeling uncertain and uncomfortable are signs of growth at different stages of your journey.
