Staying Resilient: Self Care and Rest with Ekua Cant

With the big day but a few weeks away, we’re truly bang-in-the-middle of Christmas crunch-time. You’re no doubt juggling orders and shipments as well family commitments and making plans for the festive holidays. But, with so many different elements to manage and demands being made of your time, I’d be willing to bet that the one thing you’re not prioritising is you.

In today’s episode, I speak to Confidence Coach and author of “Be Your No.1 Cheerleader” Ekua Cant. With a mission of being positive in business, career and in life, Ekua helps women to back themselves, overcome fear and unleash their potential, with a focus on balancing their ambitions with the need to rest and to prioritise personal self-care.

In this podcast we discuss the importance of scheduling time to rest, the value of investing in a good morning routine, getting comfortable with delegating, affirming that “No” is a complete sentence and how looking after yourself ultimately helps you look after your business.
