I was at a networking meeting this week and sat next to a lovely lady I’ll call her Maureen. Maureen was excitedly telling me she was moving away from her ‘job’ and starting her own business, she had, had enough of being under appreciated etc, etc. I’m sure we’ve all experienced that, I know I

I had a really interesting conversation with an extremely frustrated former business owner this week and I have a feeling that it might well resonate with large number of you reading this.

So, this week I was asked ‘why do you do what you do?’ Which got me thinking Momentum Performance Coaching is 12 years old, why Kevin and I began our journey with MPC? What we’ve achieved and what does the future hold? If over the last 12 years you’ve been to one of our events,
