Setting goals and assigning deadlines is the key to freedom and flexibility in your business. Susan Brennan is our resident success and accountability coach at I Heart My Life and she is responsible for helping our clients get things done.

After leaving corporate and moving into a virtual assistant role, Susan found herself offering advice and support more than simply assisting. After working on her own mindset and finding the space that she thrives in, she decided to become a coach. 

“Stop comparing yourself to other people. They’re on a totally different journey and they have completely different life experiences. They have different skill sets and different things that they’ve studied and different people that they know… it is a complete waste of time to compare.”

-Susan Brennan

It wasn’t until she started finding clarity around her own goals and her own desires that she found true success. It’s this process that she loves to help others complete. Because we all know that while having dreams is important, knowing what steps to take to make those dreams come true is imperative.

Listen in as Susan shares her path from corporate to coaching and why her move to San Diego was integral to her career switch. She gives actionable tips and advice on how to start envisioning your goals and how to create daily action steps to move forward. 

A goal is only as good as the steps you take to complete it. Start setting deadlines in your business and let us know how much more progress you start to see. If you’re struggling with setting your goals and you’re seeing this in real-time, join us for the I Heart Growth Workshop and start finding the clarity you need to move forward in your business.

FOUNDER & CEO

I started I Heart My Life from my kitchen table in a tiny London apartment in 2013.

After going through a 5-year quarter-life crisis, I discovered the world of personal development and the power of a gratitude journal and finally got clear on my true purpose in life: to help women fall in love with themselves and their lives. I Heart My Life has gone through many transformations over the years, but its mission has always remained the same: we exist to teach you how to create a life that you love.
