    S3E3. Overcoming Comparison In Business With @moniqueharding_

    Welcome to the third episode in a special 4 part mini summer series! Today we are joined by Monique Harding.In this episode, we chat with Monique about comparisonitis among new business owners and its potentially detrimental effects on growth and confidence. She emphasises the importance of embracing one's unique strengths and authenticity in a crowded market. Monique provides practical advice for navigating the overwhelm of social media and the pressure to conform to perceived standards of success. The conversation highlights the significance of self-trust, understanding personal goals, and focusing on meaningful client relationships to foster sustainable business growth. Monique is a no-nonsense Mindset Coach and Business Strategist helping online business owners step into their biggest vision. Known for her direct approach and transformative insights, she empowers clients to ditch convention and trust their strengths. Key Takeaways: Comparison is a natural human phenomenon but can hinder growth. New business owners often look to others for shortcuts to success. Social media can amplify feelings of inadequacy and overwhelm. Focusing on unique strengths helps differentiate in a crowded market. Authenticity in delivery and communication attracts ideal clients. There is no one-size-fits-all blueprint for business success (despite what social media tells you!). Understanding your 'enough' number helps set realistic goals. Energy is a limited resource. Building relationships is crucial for client acquisition. Narrowing down offerings can actually lead to increased revenue.
