It doesn't tell you what the answer should be - that's your decision. It gives you the opportunity to consider all aspects of your business in a comprehensive way." - Vicky Hagen "What makes the Base Notes so powerful is that it allows you to dip back into it in a non-linear fashion. After the initial deep dive, it becomes a resource that shines a spotlight on opportunities to do things differently." - Vicky Hagen   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's  Full Journal Post Link: The Base Notes Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Philippa Craddock Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: [email protected]  Hattie & Vic Website: www.hattie&vic.com   Share Your Insights: Are you feeling the tension between your creative passion and business identity?
