This week on the podcast, I'm delighted to be hosting Susan Wallace, founder of Settled Petals. Through her work, Susan provides support to families using sleep consultancy, potty training, baby yoga, baby massage, and also provides accredited training in these areas. Susan believes in a tailored approach that meets each individual family's needs in order to give them the best possible support through the early years.

Key Takeaways:

• Finding Your Niche: Susan's passion for supporting families led her to transition from social work to starting her own business offering sleep consultancy, baby yoga, and baby massage services.
• The Power of Adaptability: The COVID-19 pandemic forced Susan to adapt her business model, moving from in-person consultations to online services. This unexpected shift opened up new opportunities and expanded her reach beyond local clients.
• Balancing Work and Family: Susan shares her strategies for balancing work and family life, including working during nap times, prioritizing evening hours, and adjusting her schedule as her children grow.
• Leveraging Past Experiences: Susan emphasizes the value of drawing on her previous experience as a social worker, highlighting the importance of transferable skills and adapting them to her new role as a business owner.
• The Importance of Flexibility: Susan emphasizes the importance of flexibility and adapting her business model to meet the evolving needs of her family and clients.
