Straight From the Drafts
Welcome to Straight from the Drafts 👋
This weekly voice note is for the girlies in business who are in need of a pep talk during the tricky moments, or a reminder to stop and celebrate when life is moving so fast you forget to cheer for yourself.
Here, we bring together strategy and mindset to build purpose-led businesses and create content that helps us smash OUR goals instead of someone else’s version of success.
Whether you’re sitting on the sofa, out on your hot girl walk or I’m the soundtrack to doing the dishes, I’m so happy you’re here.
