Caring for Yourself While Pivoting Your Business with Brandie Mitchell, RN [BONUS: ASK THE EXPERT]

You started out with one business model, but for one reason or another, you’ve had to make a shift. Maybe you’re adding a new service, or maybe you’re pivoting in an entirely different direction. Either way, transition is a challenge, and you need to make sure you’re giving yourself extra love to get it all done.

In this bonus episode of Ask the Expert, Leah interviews Brandie Mitchell, RN about her experience of pursuing a career and field she never thought she would see herself in - nurse coaching. She talks about what it has been like with pivoting her business to support her clients better in a more of a coaching capacity, as what was once a majority of her business with massage therapy has been put on hold. 

She breaks down for us some of the simplest ways to get back to the basics with our self-care. We almost couldn’t even believe how accessible she makes it feel for all of us!

 "It takes time and it takes support and accountability and really uncovering deeper roots of limiting beliefs and things that get in the way of us actually doing the things that we know are good for us.”

 

In this episode, we will cover:

• Being called to pursue a different path (02:38)
• Gaining support and uncovering limiting beliefs (06:22)
• Dialing back to the most basic self-care (10:18)
• Turning awareness into action (10:47)
• Pivoting to support others during uncertainty (20:02)
