In this episode, I share the five things I’d focus on if I were to have my first year in business all over again - the activities that will support sustainable growth, clarity, and strong foundations for further down the line.


🌱 In this episode, you’ll learn:

- Why shaping your ideal week early on matters (even if your calendar is still quiet)

- The value of building a network before you feel ready

- How to talk about what you do, even when your niche is still forming

- What simple metrics are worth tracking from day one

- Why focusing on one core offer can build momentum faster than spreading yourself thin
