Have you ever looked back at the end of the year and thought, "How on earth did I get through all of that?" Between the highs, the challenges, and everything in between, it’s been a rollercoaster ride of growth and change.

Sometimes, it feels like we’re just winging it - taking one step at a time without really knowing where it will lead. And yet, those messy, imperfect steps often turn into the most transformative lessons.

This week on The Growth Diaries, I’m reflecting on the lessons, loves, and let-go’s of 2024 which include;

• Why progress doesn’t require perfection. How embracing the messy middle transformed my business - and how it can do the same for you.

• Lessons from moving past the fear of selling and my journey to confidently sharing my offers (plus how you can do it too).

• The joy of staying hands-on and why reconnecting with the details reignited my passion for what I do.

• Why stepping back from misaligned strategies (aka. Instagram) is creating space for new opportunities in 2025.

• Releasing fear and embracing discomfort, because growth and comfort don’t coexist - and that’s a good thing.

So, whether you’re ready to reflect on your own lessons from this year, or you’re looking for inspiration to step boldly into 2025, this episode is packed with insights to help you embrace change, let go of fear, and make room for growth.

There’s nothing worse than putting every last bit of energy you have into your business after working with clients and feeling like you’re not getting anywhere. You’re planning, creating, posting, and showing up day in and day out but the results you're working so hard for are nowhere to be seen.

It’s tempting to fall into the trap of blaming the algorithm and telling yourself "it's just not the right time of year for people to buy," but truthfully....these are just excuses keeping you stuck.

The real reasons your growth has stalled go much deeper than that. The good news is you can fix it - and when you do, the impact on your business and mindset is transformative.

This week on the podcast, I’m sharing more on:

• Why winging it (even with the best intentions) leads to burnout and inconsistency - and how to create strategies that deliver results.

• How unrealistic and too-safe goals can sabotage your progress - and how to reset them for sustainable growth.

• Why clinging on to outdated habits, systems, and routines is holding you back - and how to evolve for your next level.

So, if you’re tired of putting in maximum effort for minimal results, or feeling like you’re living through Groundhog Day in your business, this episode will highlight the habits that are stalling your progress and guide you through the crucial changes to start seeing the results you’ve been working for - results that will finally align with your efforts and bring your business to the next level.

When you’re running your own business, weekends can feel like "just another workday". For many of us, they’re the only time we get to work on our business instead of in it!

Treating your weekends like this might feel productive now, but trust me, it’s going to do a lot more harm than good in the long run.

Not taking time to rest? You’ll burn out.

Working non-stop? You’ll actually slow yourself down.

Weekends becoming workdays? It feels impossible to separate your personal and business life.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the common traps keeping you stuck in the weekend hustle and sharing practical strategies that will help you reclaim your weekends, set boundaries, and maximise your efficiency.

So whether you’re feeling the pressure to catch up on everything you couldn’t get to during the week or struggling to juggle client demands while trying to carve out time for your own business growth; this episode will help you take back control and create space for the things that move your business forward without burning yourself out.

In this episode, I talk more on;

• Why overworking on weekends hurts your creativity, energy, and long-term growth.

• How to review your weekly routine to identify time-draining tasks and distractions.

• The power of batching, automation, and delegation to free up your schedule.

• Simple strategies to create balance while still staying productive.
