When you've really gone and messed it up and have taken a wrecking ball to your life, it can be easier to ask others for forgiveness before you consider asking yourself. Shame festers. An inability to have self-compassion numbs you, affects your mental health, and limits the positive impact you can have in your own life and in the lives of others. Talking about shame isn't easy. Listening to advice about managing shame isn't on the top of most people's lists but self-compassion and self acceptance are crucial for healing, recovery, and fresh starts. Stuck in a shame spiral? Feeling held back or limited by your past? I can help and we should talk. https://HeatherGrayConsulting.as.me/introduction Sooner, rather than later.
First world problem, right? An inability to sit still? Perhaps. But it is a problem and an inability to sit with yourself without doing anything or an inability to relax a problem. It's a prescription for burnout, really. If you keep going and going, you will eventually run out of drive and motivation. Your physical and mental health will start to suffer and your relationships will feel the strain, too. Listen in to learn a new perspective. Question for the show? Heather@heathergrayconsulting.com

Your relationship with your team is the most important relationship you have in your business. Listen in to learn how to be purposeful and intentional in how you relate to your team. This is work I do with business owners. If you would like a consultation with me, we should chat. Here's a link to my schedule. https://HeatherGrayConsulting.as.me/introductionI am happy to help.

Putting this show on hiatus through the summer was a really big decision. While it wasn't one that I took lightly, it also wasn't one that I planned completely through before acting on. As business owners, we are called to this very thing often: making big decisions we hadn't necessarily anticipated. How do we do that with confidence? How do we trust our guts? When should we check with the peanut gallery, when do we need more research or more time, and when do we need to simply stop and act? Today, I am using my decision with this show as an opportunity to walk you though the decision-making process so you, too, can make the decisions that are right for you and for the future of your business.
