FRAME –

Once you’ve reached a particular phase in your business, the common question is, “If you had to start over, what would you do?” 

I’ve been thinking lately about what I would do differently if I were to start my business again or If I was a student going through my LLB program. In this episode, I’m going to go down the list of all the different things that I kind of thought of what I would do differently, what I would do the same, then some things that are not necessarily bad or good that I did, but I think would need to be addressed differently.

In this episode, we cover…

• Building a business while having a 9-5, why I don’t regret quitting my job and moving to Thailand
• Mastering your skills
• Building an audience, showing up & networking
• My opinion on starting a passive income
• The importance of niching down
• Mindset and clarity and defining your vision

“My number one focus would be building an audience. You can sit behind the scenes all day and perfect all of these things; you need to build foundations to scale the business, but I’m talking about, this is my day one that I’m talking to you about starting over on, and I would start building an audience.”

“When many people hear my business story, they hear about my coaching business, and we grew, you know, to a million in two years and all this crazy stuff. We grew so fast. And then, when I talk about my design business, I was booked out in my first week of launching and made over 5k in my first month and continued to scale from there. It’s all these sexy stories. But one of the bottom parts of the iceberg to those stories is that I had built a personal brand since the spring of 2008 very intentionally on Instagram.”

“I had built a personal brand, where I showed up every day for an entire year before making a single dollar. Now that’s because I wasn’t trying to sell anything before. But it’s also a huge reason I could sell things so fast because people knew and trusted me.”
