I haven’t even been in my role as a business owner for a year, but I am certain I’ve learned one of the greatest lessons I’ll learn on this journey. And that is to seek wisdom and advice from someone who is smarter than you! It doesn’t seem like that great of a revelation, but I’ve only had a couple employers in the past who sought to continually develop themselves as business owners, or even to explore personal development.

I consider myself very fortunate to have the chance to receive business/life coaching from Anne Byrd. She has helped me examine the personal and professional parts of my life, set goals and map out a plan to reaching those goals. With her coaching and encouragement, I am proactive in preparing for challenges. It’s a great feeling to be in control and on offense, instead of on defense just reacting to what happens.
