Laura is the Owner & Chief Confidence Coach at Oh My Fitness Coaching where she serves and empowers women that are ready to stop putting themselves last on the list. Today she shares about her journey from personal trainer to fitness coach and now to wellness coach, the impact she’s making, and getting comfortable standing in your own power both within your biz and in life.

She’s also the founder of The Women’s Wellness Planner - a tool to help women track and learn how to prioritize their wellness - and she’s one of my real life biz and life besties.

Today's Permission Slip:

Each episode I give you a permission slip - a reminder to give yourself permission to run your business and live your dream life on your own terms.

In today’s episode Laura reminds us that, “Nothing bad will happen to your clients if you take a day off. But something severe might happen to me if I don’t let myself relax and chill for awhile.”

And she’s completely right! We tend to run ourselves until we break, especially as entrepreneurs. And having come through a recent burnout, she knows all to well how important rest is to running your biz well and keeping yourself healthy.

I give myself permission to take time off when I need to rest.
