Have you ever wondered about the ins and outs of my business? What works and what doesn’t? The wins and losses? I think it’s so important to hear the real truth about someone’s business in order to get the whole story and the full picture.

After an unplanned hiatus at the end of 2022, I am back and thrilled to share new content with you this year! To kick off this year, I’m taking a step back and letting you have a peek inside my business with a full Year in Review for episode 100 of the podcast. I did this last year and I know that most people enjoy hearing a bit of the “behind the scenes” kind of content.

And as you know, I am pretty honest about business and don’t want you to get false ideas about what it’s like building an online biz. I know a lot of the stories that we hear in the online space are all about the wins and celebrations, but I also think it's important for people to be honest about the hard work that they put in, the money that they invest, and all the other things that go into running a business online.

So today I’ll share what worked, what didn’t work, some lessons I’ve learned, and what’s going to be both changing and staying the same in my business this coming year.
