The importance of celebrating big and small wins - and rewarding yourself every step of the way
Why, as entrepreneurs, we're so prone to ignoring or forgetting our significant (and small) wins along the way
How to harness the power of your mind and dopamine hacking to achieve even more in the future
A little pep talk that you might not know you even needed
An introduction to our Rewards & Progress Tracker, which has been designed to help you celebrate your wins
It's so easy, on the road of entrepreneurship, to go flying past your big (and small) achievements, without so much as a second thought. The pressure of pushing forward, achieving impressive goals and the ongoing pressure to generate revenue means that we can be left with a lot of achievements - and yet we still somehow feel like we're not doing enough.
In this Tea Break Episode of A Cup of Something Lovely, Laura talks through why it's so important to celebrate all of your wins - even the day-to-day small ones that don't seem so relevant. She talks through the psychology and the response in our brains when we do and don't give ourselves the recognition we SO deserve as business owners.
And towards the end, she introduces our brand new Rewards & Progress Tracker, a new digital download that we've designed to help you this specific problem.
I really hope you've enjoyed this episode!

Now, I'm I think personally, when it comes to sort of celebrating wins, I think there is a direct correlation between the small wins that we experience on maybe a daily basis and then the big, huge, chunky wins that we might only experience like a handful of those each quarter or each year. But they are so heavily interconnected and I think that's sometimes where we go wrong. So if we kind of don't really create this positive feedback loop in our brains, if we're not constantly giving ourselves like a boost of confidence, if we're not demonstrating to ourselves that we're actually capable of achieving our goals, it's, it's almost like we start telling ourselves like a little bit of a false narrative.
I'm Laura - and it's lovely to meet you.
I'm a Creative Business Coach - I've been building my business since the end of 2019 and this year, we've successfully and soulfully scaled to six figures.
Now, my journey hasn't been linear. A toxic experience in corporate, redundancy during the COVID pandemic and 1.5 years running my business as a digital nomad on the road.
I'm here to support you transform your life and business - from corporate and conventional, to connected and creative - just like I did.
A Cup of Something Lovely brings together my adventures and experiences - and every episode is designed to inspire and encourage.
