    This week on the podcast, I'm delighted to be hosting Susan Wallace, founder of Settled Petals.

Susan believes in a tailored approach that meets each individual family's needs in order to give them the best possible support through the early years.  Key Takeaways: Finding Your Niche: Susan's passion for supporting families led her to transition from social work to starting her own business offering sleep consultancy, baby yoga, and baby massage services.  The Power of Adaptability: The COVID-19 pandemic forced Susan to adapt her business model, moving from in-person consultations to online services. This unexpected shift opened up new opportunities and expanded her reach beyond local clients.Balancing Work and Family: Susan shares her strategies for balancing work and family life, including working during nap times, prioritizing evening hours, and adjusting her schedule as her children grow.Leveraging Past Experiences: Susan emphasizes the value of drawing on her previous experience as a social worker, highlighting the importance of transferable skills and adapting them to her new role as a business owner.The Importance of Flexibility: Susan emphasizes the importance of flexibility and adapting her business model to meet the evolving needs of her family and clients.
