Do you have tasks in your business that you keep putting off, and you can't quite figure out why? Maybe it’s your accounts, social media, or even sending invoices that would really help your business.
In this episode of the Your Pet Business, Your Way podcast, I’m diving into the topic of procrastination—why we do it, how it impacts our work, and practical strategies to overcome it.
I explore the common reasons behind procrastination among pet business owners, including fear of failure, overwhelm, and perfectionism. I share personal experiences and insights from my coaching training, offering tips that can help you move forward.
We’ll discuss the importance of understanding your strengths, building accountability, and creating a supportive environment that fosters productivity. Whether you're an established pet professional or just starting out, I hope you find this episode helpful.
