Do It For The Fire In Your Soul – Reimagining Hustle with Catherine Henderson

My big takeaway:

It’s ok to do things because YOU want to.

Catherine Henderson is a pharmacist and health coach. Her unique training as a pharmacist meant she saw a different perspective in health coaching.

In this episode Catherine and I talk about the importance of doing things for you. And how that’s absolutely ok.
