I'm Back

For those of you that have listened to my Kindly Blunt podcast previously you may have wondered where I suddenly disappeared to, so let me fill you in as to where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing.

My life suddenly took a nosedive in 2021, when I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. So, my first request for 2023 is if you have a test to go to – go to it, don’t put it off because it’s at an inconvenience, or you don’t have time – make time. You never know it may just save your life.

Most of 2021 was changing and adapting my life and my business to allow me to incorporate all the additional baggage cancer brings into your life. Listen to this podcast to hear how I did that, alternatively you could read about it in my new book that is coming out in March this year, called Agnes, Bea, Cancer and Me.

It was tough.  I was not motivated, I couldn’t even rant, so felt I needed to take a break from this podcast. However, as I said at the beginning – I’m back, fully motivated and ready to rant when necessary.  I have so many topics I want to talk to you about and I hope you can join me.

Thanks for listening I hope you enjoy it.

Don't make excuses, Care of Self is one of the most important things you can do for your business. One of my main principles is to move for at least ten minutes every day. Listen to this podcast from last year, it is just as valid today. Let me remind you why Care of Self is so important.

One definition of 'focus' is 'to pay particular attention to'. Day by day you need to change your focus to what your business needs, be it selling, or social media, or marketing.

There is an anonymous quote I like, which I paraphrase as, 'You are the sum of the five people you surround yourself with the most.' So we need to surround ourselves with cheerleaders people who have similar ideas, people who believe in us, rather than those who are dream breakers, radiators not drains. Listen to this repeat of my Kindly Blunt Podcast to find out what I mean by 'radiators and drains.

We build and grow our business and love what we're doing and believe it is set in stone forever, but the truth is, everything changes, our lives, our dreams and yes our businesses and we need to move forward with it.
