64 | Nurture Sustainability

You want your private practice to be sustainable but where do you begin?

We want to let you in on a little secret, nurturing your business is actually not just about your business. It’s also about nurturing yourself.

You have to pour into yourself because behind the business is a person. As a lactation consultant, you've been called to do something amazing in the world, and being able to come at that from a place of wholeness and strength, only happens when you take care of yourself first.

“We are not just businesses we’re people.”

In this episode, we will cover:

• The importance of nurturing not only your business but also yourself (3:38)
• How to start building that sustainable foundation in your business (8:47)
• The reason you need to take care of your future self now (12:00)
• The power of making connections (14:14)
