From Betty:
Calling all ethically-driven entrepreneurs & change-makers! Do you know WHAT to do to grow your business... but feel 'blocked' when it comes to actually doing it?
If so... you don't need yet another business or marketing course.
What you need is... to figure out what is blocking you at a subconscious level...
And rewire it - to get your subconscious mind working for you instead of against you.
