How often do you realise that you're getting in your own way? How often do you *wish* you had a magic wand you could wave that would stop you from feeling like an imposter or stop you before you get distracted, rather than completing the task that is really going to move your business forward?

When you become an entrepreneur you soon realise that your mind can be your most supportive cheerleader and also your biggest foe. Mindset is the root of all success ... and all failures.

In this week's episode I talk to CBT-Therapist and Mindset guru, Clare Flaxen. Clare works with ambitious women who are aware that they're getting tripped up by their mindset and want to move from stuck, to unstoppable.

Clare shares with us her career journey, what we mean when we talk about 'mindset', how she supports her own mindset for success and what her top tips are for looking after your mindset as a busy entrepreneur.

Highlights include:

[05:53] The existential crisis moment when Clare questioned whether there was more to life than being a mum

[10:44] Why so many people give up in the early stage of running a business

[15:11] What 'CBT' or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) is

[23:50] Clare's top tips for developing your mindset for success

[28:57] How so many of us subtly self-sabotage when success feels a bit scary

[39:39] - How Clare looks after her well-being and mindset
