December is just around the corner, which means that it is time for me to prepare to step away from my business to enjoy the holidays by slowing down and being with my family. Honestly, the thought of stepping away from my business, even just for a couple of weeks, kind of scares me. Running […]

I doubt I’m alone in saying that one of the most challenging parts of running a  business is nailing down your ideal client profile, right?!
