Welcome to the first installment in the Coffee Chat Series with Julie & Tara! In this new episode style, I’ll be chatting with one of my awesome business friends, Julie C. Butler. She started her business 15 years ago as a portrait photographer and has journeyed into becoming a digital content creator and selling courses and programs. Julie’s a wife, a mom of two teenagers and three shih tzus, and her business is allowing her to move her whole family to Costa Rica this summer!
In today’s episode, we kick off the conversation with a recap of our 2022s and what we’re looking forward to leaving behind and more importantly, what’s coming with us into 2023. This simple question drives our whole conversation, so grab yourself a coffee and a blanket and listen to our behind the scenes discussion of our plans for intentional, aligned years in business.
