Last week I announced that I was changing up my show, this show, The Business Podcast to focus more on me and my skills. I wrote an open letter than you can check out here. That podcast episode, youtube video and blog post went viral among podcasters. It was shared among many circles and podcast news groups. I received lots of mostly positive feedback about my new strategy to change my show and filter through guests looking for self promotion through my platform. Let's talk about how to take a step back in business so you can move forward.

On this week's episode I want to talk about how I took some of that feedback and incorporated into my changes. We can get so wrapped up in our big changes that sometimes we aren't able to take a step back and appreciate the feedback. How to take a step back in business and allow yourself to see that a step backwards is actually what you need to take a step forward.

I also want to talk about the change to my studio and why (I think you'll like the answer). Here is a one word hint: play.

Also, I want to hear from you on how you have made changes in your business and were able to take a step back.
