info_outlineJoin us as we revisit this conversation from 2021!
Have you ever asked yourself the question, “am I enough, good enough” or “am I deserving”?
These self-sabotaging questions that conjure up self-doubt and even the imposter syndrome in business may be common, but they don’t need to persist.
Let’s discuss the emotions many individuals experience as they start and build their accounting business. This can range from insecurities that may include social anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome and beyond. It’s more than understanding and identifying them, let’s also discuss coping and dealing with each.
Listen as Robyn and Roger explore the mind, the thoughts we experience when starting and building our accounting businesses.
Learn what you can do to be in business for yourself but not by yourself. There is no need to experience this journey alone and feel as if you are re-inventing the process when running a successful accounting business.
Don’t miss this important and powerful discussion!
Consider this, are you at peace with yourself as you work to help others? Wow that is a great question to ask.
Then enjoy the conversation as Robyn and Roger discuss other relevant topics that you’ll find interesting. Sit back, get a drink and listen in.
