Challenge the Way You Think | Managing Director | Driving Organisational Growth with People Optimisation Strategies
When we first started our business ventures, we had minimal resources and often felt overwhelmed by the scale of our dreams compared to our small beginnings. However, reflecting on how giants have inspired us with their humble stories, we learned that great achievements aren't about where and how you started, but about being able to: - Be persistent - Believe in your vision - Start with what you have For us, this meant taking risks and putting everything we had into our work. It was scary, but it also brought a sense of purpose and drive. #SmallBeginnings #GrowthMindset #EntrepreneurLife #StartupJourney

You may have seen that last week I took part in a live pitching competition to a panel of investors, sadly I didn’t make it through to the next round, but the experience was really amazing, and it was fab to hear I have an investable business! I was super proud of myself for coming out of my comfort zone and pushing myself to do something I’ve never done before 🙌🏻 thank you all for the most amazing comments and messages of encouragement, it was truly wonderful to feel so supported ❤️ And so for my next trick 🤣😅 I’m about to do something super scary, every fibre is telling me to find an excuse not to do this, but I wholeheartedly know that this is right for Mother Cuppa’s next chapter. Since before I even launched Mother Cuppa, I always wanted my customers to shape the business and so now it’s time……. If you want to be a part of something big, hit the notifications button on our social pages and don’t miss a post from us over the next few weeks, I promise you won’t be disappointed!!

We can't wait to hear her insights paired with those of other seasoned founders and investors in the room. It's not often you get to hear ALL perspectives and sides of the story in one panel.

When Grit becomes Growth: The Path from Pain to Transformation. Bart Foster visits the Sky Lounge to talk about how an unceremonious ouster from the thriving startup he founded led him on a transformative journey to living a life of intention and purpose. He discusses founding BusinessOutside as a result, a venture that leverages nature to cultivate deeper connections and personal growth among leaders and teams, and the techniques he uses to get out of the mundane and into the “real” talk that makes real connections. #nature #intentionalliving #businessculture #businessoutside #FutureOfWork #MakeItHappen We all need real connections in our businesses. Go See Bart in Colorado and take a hike with him. https://lnkd.in/eQDVuFrg
