SUMMARY:IGNITING Women in Business w/ Melissa Pike | New Glasgow
DESCRIPTION:Stop burnout before it starts. Learn boundaries\, mindset shifts\, and self-care tools for women entrepreneurs who want more ease. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\nMelissa is an ICF-Certified Coach with a background in Human Resources who supports high-performing leaders\, entrepreneurs\, and teams. Her work focuses on mindset shifts\, stress management\, health and wellness\, and major life transitions—including retirement. Melissa helps her clients increase productivity\, reduce burnout\, and create sustainable balance for a healthier\, happier life. \nAbout the Talk\nEntrepreneurship is challenging—and for women\, it often comes with the added pressure of putting everyone else first while striving to be nice\, humble\, accommodating\, and endlessly supportive. This talk addresses the hidden cost of that mindset and offers a powerful alternative. \nBy learning how to set and maintain healthy boundaries and reframe limiting beliefs\, women entrepreneurs can step into greater confidence\, empowerment\, and productivity—without guilt. The result? More energy\, more clarity\, and a more fulfilling business and life. \nWhat You’ll Gain\nParticipants will leave with practical tools to: \n\nSet and implement boundaries that support success\nShift unhelpful mindset patterns that lead to burnout\nRedefine self-care as a vital (and enjoyable!) part of achievement\n\nThis talk offers a refreshing\, light-hearted approach to personal growth—proving that success doesn’t have to come at the expense of well-being\, and that self-care can be effective\, fun\, and sustainable.
