Today’s guest is Mignon Francois, the founder and CEO of The Cupcake Collection, a destination bakery with locations in Nashville and New Orleans.
Mignon started her business with nothing but a five dollar bill. She turned that $5 into $60 with her first order. Sixty dollars became $600. And now, she’s sold over five million cupcakes and has won all kinds of entrepreneurial awards.
And as sweet as her success has been (no pun intended!), it hasn’t come easy.
As you’ll hear today, Mignon has persevered through some real adversity.
But you’ll also hear just how strong her mentality is. And for her, that strength comes from her faith.
Faith is an incredibly personal thing. And it looks different for each one of us.
But when you know what you believe in—whether that’s religious faith, a sense of spirituality, or simply core values you hold dear—you’ve got an anchor that will help you stay strong and grounded as you navigate all the challenges of leadership.
Listen in and see what leadership looks like when you know what you believe in!
You’ll also learn:
• The five qualities every entrepreneur needs
• A new (and refreshing) way to look at competition
• The #1 thing you need to run a family business well
• How being transparent can strengthen your relationships
Take your learning further. Get proven leadership advice from these (free!) resources:
The How Leaders Lead App: A vast library of 90-second leadership lessons to stay sharp on the go
