    Ep 178 - The Boundaries we set in our cake businesses

    This week we're back with an apology for being absent, and a great chat about Boundaries. Boundaries are like picket fences we put up to protect ourselves in our businesses. We have both been in business a long time and have made mistakes by not having boundaries, or not enforcing them. We now have clear and firm boundaries and in this episode we chat through them and explain what they are and why we have them.

    Ep 175 - Comparison Trap

    This episode we are chatting about The Comparison Trap. Sammie recently had a session with Bee from Episode 173. Afterwards Sammie realised that we needed to chat about this very important topic, so here we are. Do you repeatedly compare yourself to other cake makers and bakers. We chat about what happens to us when that happens and how we deal with it.
