Prepare To Shift Workshop

Terrand will host a multi-day workshop for a group of entrepreneurs that need the support and space to begin transitioning their business from the hobby/start up phase to growth.

This workshop hand-holds the group through the details and insights of the 14 MindSHIFT & WorkSHIFT principles outlined in the Prepare To Shift workbook. We then create a space and coach small business owners to apply these learnings to their own business.

Identify Your Assets

Are any of these thoughts familiar? 

  • “I feel like I don’t have enough resources or confidence yet to really get my business to the next level.”

  • “I don’t have the kind of network that can help me get my products on shelves where my ideal customer would even see them.”

  • “I know there has to be more to entrepreneurship than what I’ve been experiencing!”

 

Entrepreneurs can be really hard on themselves. In fact, you can be so focused on the future sometimes that you might be overlooking some of the present possibilities that are right within your reach. 

 

During the Identify Assets Coaching Session, Terrand helps you gain the clarity you’ve been seeking by showing you how to uncover unrecognized (yet available) resources and hidden skill sets, too.  

 

When you can identify your assets (whether they be products, services, people, or ideas) then you can begin to accelerate your progress towards your most audacious goals!
