One of the most valuable things I’ve experienced since joining a business owners Facebook group has been the recommendations from other members for their best non-fiction reads.
READ MOREThe perfect work-life balance that is. I know I haven’t. Some days I stare out of my office longingly at my horse, wishing that I had the time to ride him more often and that I didn’t feel guilty when I did ride him, always thinking that I should be working or putting a washing on.
