A topic that has been brought up in various Fit Prp online groups and a question Rachel received this week. " I am an outgoing group X teacher who loves people but when it comes to attending courses it literally makes me sick with nerves, the walking into a group full of other Fitpros, the driving, parking, travelling and feeling that I am not good enough stops me from booking events that i KNOW will help me develop my business and be amazing for my personal development ..... but I get so much anxiety I don't book" This is SO COMMON we ALL feel like this. Kelly and I discuss simple tips to help you get over these natural feelings and reap the rewards of personal growth.

We would LOVE to evolve this and answer your weekly questions so do send us topic ideas and questions and we will answer them on the show.
