Lately I’ve been getting asked a lot about when is the right time to update legal your documents. As we get busier throughout the year, these types of updates can fall to the wayside. But this doesn’t have to be stressful, and there’s more than one way to make sure you’re keeping all your Ts & Cs up to date.
Read MoreCrystal clear clarity is a personal value of mine. For me, clarity comes when I speak and I believe that words are so important. Words help us gain an understanding on what it is we need to do and where we need to focus. They are also extremely important when it comes to your legal documents so today I’m talking about why words matter, legally.
Read MoreIn today’s episode, I want to talk to you about the issue of infringing trademarks and how it can be avoided by putting the right processes in place.

Read MoreSometimes we can feel like we’re running around chasing our own tails. We start our work days trying to get a handle on all the emails, the schedule and team queries. It can feel like we’ve started the day in a very reactive mode. There can be a number of reasons why we’re feeling reactive instead of proactive, but one of the biggest issues that we can have as small business owners is a lack of organisation.
Read MoreDuring this period of reflection, we tend to look around at what others are doing in business and feel as if we don’t measure up. We look at others and feel like we should be further along and we can start to feel bad about ourselves. This is often our ego taking over and it causes us to make decisions out of alignment with our true purpose.
Read MoreWe are at that time of the year where, hopefully, you’re not focused on moving the needle in your business but taking some well deserved time off.

Read MoreMost of are either just about to “switch off” or we’ve already started to wind down. This episode is really timely in that context. We’re throwing back to the gold that was in the episode with Dr. Kristy Godwin. If you haven’t listened to it, this will be a gamechanger for you. If you’re like me and you already have, listening to it again will be even better.
Read MoreThis week I want to talk about strategy and planning for 2023. This time of year can be a really wonderful opportunity to pause, take stock and reflect on the year that’s been. This allows us to uncover the lessons from the year and understand where the real value was in our business journey across the year. I hope this inspires you to take what you have learnt from the year that’s been, incorporate that into a planning process and build a strategy for the next year in your business.
Read MoreAt this time of year, I always take the time to pause and reflect on what has been. Is business everything I thought it would be? Have things gone according to plan? We place so much focus on success and achieving our goals that often when things don’t go how we hoped they would, we perceive this as failure. But the truth is, failure is not the opposite of success. Failure is a vital part of success.

Read MoreNo two businesses are the same, which is why every expert who supports your business should treat it as such. In this episode, I’m talking about what it is you can and should expect from experts and what is simply not okay. In this episode, I talk about the fact that over half of small businesses in Australia fail, the reasons behind this and why it’s vital for experts to be supporting business owners in a bespoke way.
