    Understand the Difference Between a Mentor and a Coach: Recognise that a mentor offers guidance based on personal experience, whereas a coach focuses on task completion and accountability. Identifying the Need for a Mentor: A mentor can help you focus on big-picture strategies. Assess if you are spending more time working IN your business rather than ON it. Seek a Mentor with a Proven Track Record: Look for someone who has achieved results in the areas where you need help. Consider the Cost: Determine whether a paid or volunteer mentor fits your budget and needs. Industry Experience Isn't Always Necessary: A mentor from a different industry can offer fresh perspectives and innovative solutions. Avoid Controlling Personalities: Choose a mentor who facilitates decision-making rather than directing it. Network and Spread the Word: Utilise your network to find potential mentors. Peer-to-Peer Mentoring as a Starting Point: Consider joining groups like HerBusiness Network for peer-to-peer mentoring opportunities. Mentoring can be a transformative experience for business owners at any stage.

Great conversation!

I just listened to the episode with Suzi and Tina Tower and I absolutely loved it! I’m feeling inspired and energized.

Melissa Horvat, Graphika ,

Episode 219

What a fabulous episode featuring Tina Tower! My key takeaways were ‘showing up every day on your socials with hair and makeup done or not’; and the insight into contractor vs employee mentality. Lots of nuggets of gold in this episode and I felt so inspired after listening. Suzi, get the woman a badge! Love your work, Tina.

Alex Hanlon, Engine No.2 ,

Episode 215: Dare to be bigger

Suzi’s podcasts are always really thought provoking. For women working to grow their businesses, each episode really helps cut through the every day noise and distractions to get to the key tasks that actually shift your business performance forward. But this episode … just mind blowing. This episode speaks to a flow mindset that I have known, but I have never heard it explained and explored like this. Tackling a tough and challenging topic, exploring with kindness and humour, it was so very important for me to hear this today. Thanks Suzi!
