In my opinion, “visualizing the ideal” is one of the most important steps in building and cultivating a successful business. It’s so easy to get caught up in dollars and numbers and how busy we are that this important and extremely practical step is often neglected. Visualizing the mental, physical and spiritual ideal is a business plan that takes into consideration spirit, people, planet, family, health, fun, kindness, generosity, financial success and numerous invisible forces! The focus of this workshop will be helping you to visualize what your own personal plan might look like in the quest for a mindful and successful business. We’ll learn from the Badger’s journey from kitchen craft to the “force for good” that we’ve become. Ideally, you’ll leave with an improved vision that will help you make the next exciting steps in your own personal and business journey.

“Bill's business workshop changed my life. I was so inspired by Badgers kind business practices; to their employees, community, each other, and to the world. I want my business to be that kind! I learned that this business journey is full of refinement, and that’s ok! Bill asked us to close our eyes and in vision our dream business in 5 years- I’ve been refining, building, and on the cusp of a major positive business shift ever since! Thank you Bill for inspiring me!” - Jazmine Breslend (hair artist)
