Nan Berrett Business Coaching & Mentoring
Your Journaling Coach
About
I have journaled for most of my life - when I was a kid journaling took the form of sticking pictures of animals in a notebook and writing about them. I also copied poems I liked into my journals. I continued journaling as an adult and now have a library of journals covering more than six decades! I run regular free journaling challenges on Facebook and recommend journaling for my clients to help them achieve clarity.

Why Journal?
Journaling is a powerful tool for small business owners, offering a practical way to clear mental clutter, gain clarity, and stay focused on goals. The day-to-day demands of running a business can be overwhelming, and journaling provides a moment of pause—a chance to reflect, plan, and process thoughts in a structured yet personal way. By writing regularly, business owners can track progress, identify patterns in decision-making, and spot opportunities for improvement. It’s also a safe space to express frustration or celebrate wins—something many solo operators often don’t get to share elsewhere.
For small business people juggling multiple roles, journaling becomes a strategic habit. Whether it’s capturing client insights, brainstorming new offers, or reflecting on challenges, it helps externalize thoughts that might otherwise go in circles. It can also support emotional resilience, reduce stress, and foster a sense of control during uncertain times. By turning journaling into a consistent business ritual, entrepreneurs create room for self-awareness and smarter decision-making—both essential ingredients for sustainable growth.
