One of the things I love about doing this podcast is meeting super interesting people. And learning about how they got to where they are today.

That’s why today I invited Nicole Smith.

Nicole Smith is the founder & CEO of Flytographer a personal photography service when you travel abroad. It’s a really great concept, you should check out their site.

I invited Nicole because she didn’t fit the stereotypical startup founder mold.

She’s a mother of two boys.

She was a successful marketing executive with Microsoft.

And Nicole launched her startup in the middle of a successful career.

Simply put, Nicole had a lot more to lose than your 20-year old college grad.

Today we dive into things like:

*

Overcoming imposter syndrome

*

How she got on the Today Show and the Canadian version of Shark Tank…Dragon’s Den

*

And how her corporate background didn’t hold her back from being a scrappy entrepreneur

If you think it’s too late to follow that entrepreneurial path, this interview with Nicole will convince you otherwise.
