"I should’ve reached $10-20k a long time ago" (unedited life coaching session)

I'm actually pretty nervous sharing this life coaching session with you.... In this 40-minute, unedited recording, I talk with my life coach, Shirley, about how I feel super behind in my business, why I don't think I can be successful, my struggles with my new pivot, and how I feel stuck always catering to the algorithm. I've worked with Shirley since 2022, and after more than 25 life coaching sessions, she has helped me shift my perspective and thinking in so many ways. We met up for a girls' work retreat on the Sunshine Coast and decided to record our session together because these are usually on Zoom. Context: The business pivot I'm talking about is combination of things: experimenting more creatively (like with my Calligraphy Poems for the Soul), writing/blogging more, and creating what I want to create instead of doing it based on the algorithm.
