Show notes: In today's episode Emma & Niki discuss the idea that business is an evolution, you don't (and can't) know everything when you first start out and sometimes don't even have a clear view of where you might end up and that's ok! We learn so much as we grow our businesses, that influences everything from our self-confidence, skills, resilience and what we spend our time doing daily that we might never have imagined when we started out. They discuss the idea that it can feel overwhelming at times and how they've each dealt with that, as well as the fact that growing a business takes time and requires patience, but no matter the outcome, it's usually worth it in the end.Niki & Emma are both hosting their own group programmes, which will help you and your business evolve.
