Over the past six months I’ve worked with a number of clients who are tightly stuck in the double bind of making money and having time. In this episode I’m sharing the implications of this situation, how it shows up, and a few ways to get out of it. Also, I’m sharing that my 8-month coaching package, Grow Serve & Shine, will be concluding this year. I’ve loved offering this over the past ten years… AND I’m looking to doing things differently in 2025. Reach out if you are interested in signing up, before I take it down.

I spent the weekend submerged in the Bhagavad Gītā (happy place!). One of the terms my teacher taught us was ‘Tyāga’, dispassion or inner renouncement. I think this is a quality that serves us SO well in business. So I’ve got three tips for you, and a bonus suggestion. Enjoy!
