200: Why It's Important to Celebrate Your Wins with Jennine Heller
If you’re not celebrating your business success, why? What’s stopping you?
There are several reasons why you might tend to avoid acknowledging your wins. But refusing to celebrate them can have a detrimental impact on you and your business.
My fellow masterminder and coach Jennine Heller certainly sees celebrating as a necessity, not an indulgence. And what better way to celebrate another milestone for the show than to not only talk about and indulge in the act of celebration but also discuss why it’s so essential and how to begin cultivating it as a practice. So join us as we celebrate the 200th episode of the podcast!
In this episode of She Thinks Big, you’ll take a deep dive into why you need to celebrate wins (big and small) to maintain a positive mindset and achieve long-term success. Jennine and I will also discuss strategies for building a celebration habit, reasons why you might be stopping yourself from acknowledging your successes, and the importance of celebrating your wins with others.
