So many women want to start the business.
So few are prepared for what it really takes to build the business.

In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the gritty, unglamorous—but deeply empowering—truth of entrepreneurship. Whether you’ve been dreaming of launching your first offer, pivoting your niche, or finally creating consistent income online… this is the real talk you need to hear before you spiral back into overthinking or burnout.

We’re talking about what it looks like to actually own your role as a business owner, especially when it feels like no one is watching yet. I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes of my own multi-passionate journey (8+ years online!), the DM questions I get constantly, and why confidence, clarity, and conversion don’t come from perfection—they come from practice.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I have a camera… can I be a photographer?”
“How do I make $1k a day like you?”
“Why isn’t anyone buying from me yet?”

This episode is your grounded, soulful reminder that success isn’t found in shortcuts—it’s created in the decision to lead.

The illusion of the “easy start” and why most women give up too soon

What people don’t see when they ask me how to “just start a business”

How to build confidence before anyone claps for you

Why comparison and algorithm-chasing are keeping you stuck

The mindset shift that separates side hustlers from CEOs

Is tired of second-guessing herself

Wants to turn her passion into real profit

Is ready to stop “trying” and start owning it

Feels like she’s meant for more—and wants to move with clarity

Pull on your comfiest sweatshirt, grab your favorite drink, and settle in, sis.
Let’s get real about the work—and the magic that happens when you stop waiting for validation and start building like it’s already yours. 💻☕️✨
