29: Life & Business Updates from Laura
Today’s episode is a bit different from what you’re used to hearing from me, but I thought this was a great time to give you my life and business updates.
I have a trip and a speaking engagement to share with you, plus updates on my Business Hive and ConTiGO courses, Therapy in the Great Outdoors community (we’re almost at 400 members, come join us!), and The Therapy in the Great Outdoors Foundation.
Lastly, I want to remind you all (and in turn, remind myself) to be gentle with yourself and give yourself grace. You can’t do everything all the time, you can only do the best you can.
We’ll discuss:
[00:00] Why I decided to do an update on my life, plus my upcoming dual purpose trip to California
[07:10] My takeaways on gaining and losing staff members in your business and the importance of documenting your business processes
[12:09] What’s going on with the Therapy in the Great Outdoors community
[16:18] Updates on my Business Hive and ConTiGO courses
[25:45] Focusing on strategic marketing and speaking at a conference in the fall
[26:39] A reminder to be gentle with yourself and give yourself grace
[28:47] A quick status update on The Therapy in the Great Outdoors Foundation, a non-profit that I’m starting to provide scholarships for children to attend nature-based therapy services.
