In today's episode, Anna shares the 5 books that have changed her life!

When you've tentatively decided to make a big career or lifestyle change but you don't feel ready to work with a coach or invest in a paid programme, a good place to start is to do some reading and reflecting on your own. With this in mind, I'm sharing my five favourite books, which inspired and guided me when I was decided to leave my corporate...

In today's episode, Anna looks at the power of stepping out of your comfort zone and into your growth zone - while avoiding the dreaded panic zone.

Focusing on growth rather than comfort can be an incredibly empowering perspective. A perspective of growth gives us a more positive outlook as even the worst situations offer opportunities to grow; it’s future focused, as every new situation is a fresh opportunity and our past does...

In today's episode, Anna looks at why you need to stop procrastinating and get on with it!

When you have a very limited amount of time available to work on your business - and, let's face it, who doesn't - there comes a point when we just need to get on with it and do it. As powerful as strategies and plans can be, at some point perfection can get in the way and become an excuse for procrastionation. On the other hand, ...

In today's episode, Anna looks at the different circumstances that may require you to revisit your goals.

For all the talk of the importance of persistence, consistency, resilience, and avoiding 'shiny object syndrome' when working towards your goals, sometimes it is necessary and even desirable to change not just the actions that you're taking but the vision itself.

In today's episode, Anna looks at what to do when you're just not feeling it.

There's a lot of talk, especially at the beginning of a new year, about envisioning and planning for great success. The start of a new year can, absolutely, be an inspiring time for reimagining where you want to be and planning for how to get there... but what if you're *not* feeling inspired? You're not feeling excited about defining ...

In today's episode, Anna looks at a fun but powerful exercise to visualise your goals.
 
While it's really important to do the 'proper' work of goal setting, looking at specific targets and metrics and so on, for your business, that strategic work is probably going to end up in a drawer somewhere sooner or later. A vision board can be a fun but powerful way of visualising and reminding yourself of your goals to keep...

Reviewing our goals, learning from what's gone wrong, and celebrating our successes
 
Taking the time to do review the past year and plan for the new one will help you to remind yourself of what you're working towards and re-align your actions with your goals; learn from your mistakes and failures; and stop for a moment and celebrate your wins.

In today's episode, Anna looks at how you can come up with a 'theme' to guide your decisions and actions in 2021.

Let's face it, we've all come up with New Year's resolutions and goals and intentions - and then inevitably failed to follow through.

Coming up with a word or a phrase - a theme - is a much more effective approach. It's specific enough to give you a clear direction, and flexible enough to all...

In today's episode, Anna looks at how you can make the most of some much-needed time off during this holiday season.

Whether you're snuggling up indoors in the northern hemisphere or enjoying the hot weather down under, this season is an important time for you and your business.

No, I'm not talking about hustling away on Christmas Day and being super productive even during your days off. Instead, we're talking about...

In today's episode, Anna looks at what happens when your ladder is leaning against the wrong wall and all that climbing ends up being a frustrating waste of time...

“If the ladder is not leaning against the right wall, every step we take just gets us to the wrong place faster.” - Stephen Covey This is a quote that I came across, and it's variably attributed in its different versions to Stephen Covey, the legendary leadershi...

In today's episode, Anna asks: What is The Dream? What does that actually look like?

Again and again, I see people and I see clients coming to me and they're getting all caught up in, "Oh, I couldn't possibly do this,” or, "I'm getting stuck… How do I do xyz? How am I ever going to achieve this?" Before they really know, before you really know: WHAT are you trying to achieve? What is the dream? And the q...

In today's episode, Anna looks at how to define a list of objective criteria for your next career move.

When you're considering your next career move, it’s very easy to get swayed by what other people are saying or doing; to get overwhelmed by all the different options; and to struggle to make an objective decision.

In my experience, I've found that the best way to assess different options and opportunities that come yo...

In today's episode, Anna looks at how you can make your 9-to-5 escape happen in 2021.

There has never been a better time to leave the world of corporate employment and start up on your own. It’s easier than ever before - yes, it’s still going to be hard work, but there is more information, tools and guidance out there than ever before.

Thanks to COVID-19, a lot of companies and individuals are also more comfortable with virtual...

In today's episode, Anna looks at common mistakes and pitfalls to avoid as you navigate the transition of leaving your 9 to 5 to work for yourself.

Leaving behind everything that you know in the world of full-time employment to embrace working for yourself is a huge decision and a massive change, and it's easy to focus on everything that could go wrong. "What if...?" "But maybe I can't..." "What do I...

In today's episode, Anna looks at if it's ever a good idea to quit your job without another one lined up.
 
The question we're asking today is, when should you, or when might you want to, quit your job without a plan, without having that next job or business already lined up? When might that be the right decision for you? Of course, this is incredibly personal, but I hope this discussion will give you some ideas and hel...

In today's episode, Anna looks at how you can make time for a side hustle while in a full-time job.

The idea of a side hustle is one that has really taken off in the last couple of years. It’s a way of creating an additional revenue stream alongside an existing job and, more than that, it can allow you to pursue a passion, learn new skills, and reinvigorate your career. But how on earth can you make time for a side hustle when ...

In today's episode, Anna looks at that eternal question that continues to rage, as to whether you should take the 'sensible' option of starting a business alongside your job, as a side hustle, or you should quit your job and go 'all in' with your business.

In a nutshell, a side hustle is simply “a secondary job that brings in extra cash”. The benefits are obvious: it’s the extra cash and, by extension, the diver...
