Reflecting on 2023, business buddies and looking forward to 2024

How was 2023 for you? Is it a year you’re happy to look back on or one you’d rather forget?This week’s podcast is about reflecting on the last 12 months because there will be high points and inside of the challenges there are always lessons.It’s also about looking forward to 2024 and thinking about what you want for your business for the year ahead.So that you can break your goals down into manageable milestones and think about what you’d like to focus on.The episode also talks about being kind to yourself when you reflect and set your future goals, and letting go of things that aren’t working anymore.Plus how having an accountability buddy by your side will help you when the road gets rocky, and when you want to whoop about your wins.Inside I’m sharing lots of personal anecdotes about 2023, what’s in store for 2024 and why a business mini-break might be just what you need to kick off the year.
