Are you as addicted to journals as I am? I was introduced to Habit Nest through the Boutique Hub and I knew I had to have Lindsay McDermott, Chief Happiness Officer at Habit Nest, on the show. She joins me today not only to talk about journals, but also to discuss what it takes to be a business owner and cultivate successful habits for life, business, health, family—everything!
Grab a seat, get comfortable, and listen in to an open and honest conversation about what it takes to be successful on a daily basis, as well as how to survive chaos with six kids. Lindsay also shares some of the science behind what makes for successful habits and takes us through why journals are a great addition to sell in stores, online, or even in live sales.
