We all need support to get where we want to go - especially if we want to get there faster and easier!If you're in business for yourself it can be hard to do all the things you need to do and if most of your circle of friends and family are employees, then it's hard for them to really understand what's going on for you...
Equally - if you're employed in a leadership position, then that can be really lonely too - it's not that easy to find people you can talk openly about your aspirations as often the people in your life have a vested interest in the choices you make....So in this episode Shandra looks at the five different types of support you need and how you can get it...
