As a society we celebrate fast growth, pushing through, and overcoming whatever obstacles are in our way.

Yet over and over again I see my clients truly crack open gentle momentum and growth in their business journey - and actually have the capacity to sustain that growth - when they are brave enough to honour their needs in the process.

When they go at their own pace, when they opt-out of the growth-at-all-costs mindset, and when they tend to their nervous system every step of the way.

I’m a chronically ill parent and there’s no way I would have been able to sustain my business for over a decade now without deeply honouring my humanness in my work.

I have a mantra: our needs are the answer, not the obstacle.

They’re how we can feel resourced and rested enough to actually sustain the courage, experimentation, and devotion to doing our very best work that running our own business asks of us each week.

So in today’s podcast episode I share more about what it’s looked like to see my own needs as the answer and not the obstacle in my business and some encouragement for how you can do the same too.

You’re not alone if you need a whole lot of space to tend to the needs of your life, body, and mind in your business. I’m right there with you, needy and refusing to be ashamed of it.
