10 Biggest Bummers as Reported by Female Entrepreneurs | E185


Listen Later

You started with a dream. A vision. And you created a business in order to bring your dream to life. But along the way, you've had sticking points that you just didn't expect, and some of them may have even rattled your confidence.

Recently, host Kris Plachy, sent an email asking women entrepreneurs what were the biggest and most unexpected bummers that they've experienced along their journeys. Kris compiled and categorized the responses, and in this episode of Leadership is Feminine, Kris kicks off a mini series where she explores the top 10 concerns that emerged from the list. She digs deep into issues like motivation and engagement, emotional challenges, communication drama, retention, and more.

In this episode Kris details the top ten bummers, and in each of the daily bonus episodes, she will dive into one of these bummers and examine why we think these things are happening, what options you have as a leader in order to solve them, and the steps you can take to get the solutions you want.

This mini series serves as a way to provide additional support and to also give a preview of what it looks like to be a part of the upcoming Lead Lessons, a unique blend of digital lessons and live mentorship calls, designed to help leaders lead with confidence and connection.
