From My Inbox: Who has helped you?
Random interesting & useful 💩 pulled from the myriad of emails which land in my inbox.
My ‘why’ is to help others succeed, so when this email landed in my inbox - “Your emails and book have been helpful to me as I have transformed my career from home based business owner (mother of 6 children) into a data scientist and entrepreneur” - you know i was beaming.
Who has helped you on your path towards success? Do they know the ways they have helped you? Why don’t you stop reading this edition of From My Inbox and go let them know…this will be waiting for you when you get back from that important task.
…so…
Email sent?
Good.
Let’s continue with the good 💩 from my inbox:
