In this episode of Confessions From the Home Office, we are exploring the intersection of goal setting, networking, and running a successful business while managing family life. Nisha Patel, owner of a boutique PR (NPatel Communications) firm in Greenville, SC, shares her journey from TV reporter to PR business owner and full-time mom.

Key Topics Wendi and Nisha Discussed:

  • Transitioning from journalism to PR
  • Balancing business ownership with family life
  • Strategic goal setting in Q4-start before the new year!
  • Creating and managing think tanks for business growth
  • The importance of networking and building connections
  • Managing work schedules with family commitments
  • Dealing with setbacks and maintaining focus

"Your business will grow if you put the work into it. That does not mean you have to be working on your business 24 hours a day, seven days a week." - Nisha Patel

Key Takeaways:

  1. Start goal setting early (Q4 for the next year)
  2. Begin networking with existing connections
  3. Take one day at a time and give yourself grace
  4. Set aside dedicated time to work on your business
  5. Don't view other business owners as competition
