In this episode, Emily chats with Julie Humphris about all things business coaching and the Digital Solutions program. Julie's journey into business coaching was born from her firsthand experience as a self-employed bookkeeper and multi-business owner. Having navigated the intricate landscape of managing multiple enterprises, Julie recognised a common challenge among business owners — the overwhelming workload that often led to a loss of focus and enjoyment in their entrepreneurial journey. In her early days as a self-employed bookkeeper, Julie intimately understood the demands of juggling financial responsibilities while simultaneously running other businesses. This hands-on experience provided her with invaluable insights into the struggles faced by entrepreneurs who found themselves stretched thin and unable to savor the joy of being in business. Driven by a passion to make a positive impact, Julie transitioned from being solely focused on her businesses to embracing a new role as a business coach. Her mission became clear: to guide and support fellow entrepreneurs through the challenges of workload overwhelm, offering strategies to regain focus, rediscover passion, and ultimately find joy in their business endeavors. Julie's unique approach to coaching is deeply rooted in empathy and a profound understanding of the day-to-day realities that entrepreneurs face. Drawing from her own journey, she developed programs that not only address the practical aspects of business management but also emphasize the importance of holistic well-being. Through her coaching, Julie empowers business owners to not only excel in their professional lives but also to enjoy the journey, fostering a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in their entrepreneurial endeavors. Today, Julie's coaching is a testament to her commitment to helping others break free from the shackles of overwhelm, guiding them towards a more balanced and enjoyable entrepreneurial experience. Her story is one of transformation, resilience, and a genuine desire to uplift others in their business journeys Tune in to find out more!
