Summary
I met Helen Tremethick, a rurally-based Regenerative Business Designer and Holistic Business Coach, through her workshop for the Canadian Women's Chamber of Commerce and it was her workshop's title, "Sustainability is B******t" that caught my and so many others' interest.
In this episode, Helen discusses her approach to disrupting business coaching and the importance of redefining success. She emphasizes the need to consider how our businesses are running for us and the impact they have on our ecosystem. Helen also highlights the challenges and benefits of being a rural resident and business owner. She shares her insights on somatic therapy and its role in decision-making and self-care. Helen concludes with advice for entrepreneurs, encouraging them to connect with their bodies, define their own version of success, and focus on their own journey rather than comparing themselves to others.
