    Episode 8: Letting Go

    Part of the journey of small business ownership sometimes involves letting go, branching out into new areas and trying out new things. This could be letting go of areas of responsibility as your business grows, letting go of expectations as you respond to customer demands, or letting go of previously held beliefs that are holding you back. While changing and rethinking how you work can be exciting and fulfilling it can also be a source of stress and uncertainty. So how do you navigate these changes when your heart is telling you one thing, and your head another? In this episode we’re bringing you stories about letting go, taking that leap and moving forward.

    Episode 7: Taking A Stand

    By standing still and not speaking out on the issues that matter to you and your customers, you run the risk of alienating your audience. But when doing anything public as a business owner it’s important to make sure that you’re approaching it in the right way for you and your business. So with so many worthy causes and important movements that need support, how do you choose to focus your energy? Should you be responding to these issues or baking in ways to proactively avoid your business being part of the problem? Or should you do both? And how do you best communicate the work you do? How much is enough? In this episode we’re going to bring you stories about taking a stand. When to do it, how to do it and when to not do it at all, and just listen.
