Your Business, Your Way

Sometimes having your own business is a lonely game. In January, feeling this personally, I set up The Soul Traders Club aimed at female entrepreneurs who want to build lives and businesses that work for them. When you are clear on your vision for your life, you can then start to take action to move you towards that.

Feedback from the Founder Members has been very positive, and in response to this, I’ve built an 8-week group coaching course that will start on Monday 20th September with coaching sessions over Zoom every Monday 9.30-10.30am. The course content will include exploring your values, your unique strengths, your vision for your life, mindset, building positive habits, confidence and money mindset. Building a successful business requires the belief you can do it and the tenacity to work towards that.

If you would like to learn more or to sign up for the free taster session on Monday 6th September 2021, please go to www.lynray.co.uk/the-soul-traders-club

Studio Share

I am looking to share my studio from now until the end of the year. It is a three window studio, lots of natural light and uncluttered.

I am a musician and mainly use the studio for teaching and practising. Sharing with another musician, or similarly small scale music making would work well, but I’d be happy to talk to other artists who need a space to work in for a time too. I am interested in drawing, photography and video work as well, so get in touch if you are interested to have a look at the space.

Rent would be £115 a month, including all of the perks of being in the Palette – please contact me at kungflute@gmail.com to find out more.

Thanks!
