About this episode

In this episode, I'm sharing my favourite summer books and beach reads that are perfect for creative business owners. These books are all about helping you step back, relax, and do some big-picture planning for your business while enjoying your summer break; so that you can use the slower summer months to help you plan, strategize, and get clarity ahead of the busy sales season!
