    Join me this week for a conversation on what I believe is one of the key principles of creating a sustainable, regenerative business - designing relevant solutions to real problems.In business and elsewhere in life, there can be such a focus placed on always having and building more, which inevitably leads to waste and resources being used in a way that isn't really necessary.In the episode we dive into what this actually means for us as values-led service based business owners and how we go about designing offers that are indeed relevant to the people and the cause we want to support. We touch on five key points, including the importance of co-creating along with your clients.🔗 Connect with Me:If you enjoyed this episode and want to learn more about this approach, check out my free Starter Kit at: https://www.debbielee.co.uk
