In the States, Labor Day which means summer is UNOFFICIALLY over…

This means the real work is here --getting ready for Q4.

Q4 is the busiest time of year for me and my clients where:

• Companies are working on hitting their numbers
• Holidays are coming up so getting ready to deal with triggering family members
• And more importantly making sure to have enough time for sanity lol

So how do you get ready?

For me I have been using all summer prepping myself for Q4 by: 

• Updating my systems 
• Improving my own knowledge and skills by obtaining my PCC coaching certification with the International Coaching Federation as I’ve been working with more companies and executives.
• Looking at my numbers and making changes. For example, I have deleted a bunch of expenses because I didn’t hit the numbers I wanted in the beginning of the year.

There’s been loads of updates and changes I’ve been doing behind the scenes to get ready for Q4, and I share more in my podcast.

What We Cover in This Episode:

• Review Goals: Revisit your yearly personal and business goals
• The importance of being self-aware and leaning into what’s making you feel uncomfortable
• How to look at your numbers to create aligned change
