Business EN ↓ 98 episodes

I’m Jen Carrington, an online business guide and I’ve spent the past nine years building and running my own simple and spacious business and supporting hundreds of my clients in theirs too. In this show I’ll be diving into the ways we can bring more simplicity, ease, joy, and intention to our work - through both the nitty gritty practical shifts and all of the mindset shifts that comes with running your own business too. This podcast isn’t here to tell you how to build and run your business, instead I want to support you to build and run your business in whatever way truly works best for you....
