Description

What do you do when you’re stuck in your business – stuck in the chaos of getting it all done and not seemingly getting anywhere close to the lifestyle you dreamed of?
My guest today packs a lot in, and I don’t just mean with her ability to manage all the things at once with a growing family, I mean also that she shares so many powerful insights in this chat.
Emily Bedford, owner of residential and commercial cleaning service Hazelclean, is incredibly generous and open with her experience of building her business so far, we chat about:

Following your intuition into a business and backing yourself to create the lifestyle you want to have.
Pushing it too hard as a sole trader then stepping into the scale-up.
All the learnings and mistakes that can come with taking on employees.
Feeling trapped within your own business, despite your love for it.
The role self-sabotage can play in our businesses.
And the massive growth you can experience when you invest in your own support and education.

If you’re needing to hear from someone who has been there and is doing that, you’re in the right place.

This weekly podcast explores what it’s like to be starting your career over, with the people who’ve done it. In conversation, we tackle the messy middle of changing your life - how it feels to drop the identity of whatever came before and step into a brand new you – with, or without a plan.  Your host is Kim Kerton (hi!) the creator behind the handmade ceramics and plant-based recipes of Good Side of the Bed, a writer, marketer, yoga teacher, sea-changer, rev-head and pug mum. Before all that, Kim spent over a decade in the commercial media business. She decided to walk away, got unemployed and afraid, and here we are. This podcast is for the brave people who want to start over but are feeling the fear - maybe putting off starting because the end isn’t clear - and for those who find themselves right in the middle of the whirlwind. Whether by choice or by push, starting over is scary, Unemployed & Afraid is your tribe on the pathway through change.
