In this episode, Steph discusses the importance of making investments in ourselves and our travel businesses. She highlights the negative effects of not honouring ourselves and the slippery slope of giving away personal power. Steph emphasises the need to back ourselves and build confidence, and she explores the nature vs. nurture aspect of confidence. She also provides insights into choosing the right investments and the value of investing in growth and transformation. All while sharing the personal benefits of investing in ourselves and the opportunities and connections that can arise from it. We also dive into the reasons why investing in yourself is more than just a nuance when running a business – it’s a necessity.  

Honest question…

Do you ever feel super confident after spending a tonne of money?

It’s such a rush, hey?!

I recently had to splash a bit of cash on my car as it sounded like I was dragging a tree branch under it every time I got on the brakes.

While at the mechanics, he told me the cost and I almost died – but quickly whipped out my card, tapped away and all of a sudden, my confidence went through the roof. I honestly felt so buzzed!!

Like, I now officially feel like I belong back on the road.

Best of all? I can return to my local shopping centre underground carpark without having concerned locals giving me the side-eye.

Did I really want to spend the money? HELL no!

Do I feel better for it? Has it made my life better? Am I more confident? Absolutely!

Outcome: Was it worth it? Every last cent…

Whenever I draw the comparison to spending money in my business, the feeling is much the same.

Energetically its compelling me to always do my best, because I’ve invested SO much to get here.

The same when I invest in mentors, it’s so I can do what I do with higher intention and more grace.

Holidays get booked and they’re immediately justified because we already know what the ROI is going to mean for us. Especially in the travel game!

In this weeks podcast episode, I’m diving into the reasons why investing in yourself is more than just a nuance when running a business – it’s a necessity.  

Here’s what I speak about:
💸 What happens to your brand vibe when you start to feel stuck and unmotivated;
💸 When your dreams, visions and goals are fuelled by passion, so is your desire to grow as a person;
💸 How investing in yourself gets you to where you want to be quicker, but with demonstrated confidence.

This one is a cracker – so if you’re feeling stuck, like the days are just turning into nights without you even realising, or you’re in need of a massive shake up and kick into gear – do yourself a favour and tune in!
