What I learnt in 2021 as a business owner

12/22/21 • 15 min

Wrapping up 2021 with some key lessons I learnt as a business owner around being an introvert, having the right mindset and the importance of self care. So often we only see the glamorous life of being an entrepreneur and all the wins that come with it. But I really wanted to reflect on some of the not so pretty stuff that goes on behind the scenes, and what I learnt from moments of self-doubt. I hope something in here resonates with you and see you in 2022!
