I'll let Sarah, the copywriter, introduce herself : 'Who knew the girl who used a whole roll of film taking pictures of headstones (age 7) and wrote a terrible poem about memories (age 9) would become a photographer and copywriter? Let that be your inspiration. If Sarah could do it, then really, ANYONE CAN. Sarah has always been creative, but it took a 20-year paramedic career to work out what she really hated doing and a move halfway across the world to finally do the thing she really wanted to do.

But if you under promise and over deliver (especially with deadlines!) you're giving yourself room to go above and beyond their expectations.
In this week's podcast, I dive into this topic a little more!
