What better way to celebrate my birthday than reflecting on five years of running this business?

In this special birthday episode of the Engage Your Brand® podcast, I’m sharing the 10 biggest lessons I’ve learned, from sales skills to mindset shifts that have shaped both my life and my business.

We’ll talk about why learning sales early on sets you up for long-term success, why entrepreneurship can sometimes feel like its own “cult,” and how investing in help (instead of trying to DIY everything) can move your business forward faster. I’ll also share what it means to play the long game and why remembering that you are your biggest asset is one of the most important lessons of all.

Here are some takeaways:

• Learning sales early is key to sustainable growth.
• Outsiders may not understand the entrepreneur lifestyle, and that’s okay.
• DIY has its limits, outsourcing creates room to grow.
• Business will reflect your strengths and weaknesses back at you.
• Success comes to those who stick with it for the long game.
• You are your biggest asset, invest in yourself.
• Listen in for all 10 lessons I’ve learned in 5 years of business (and on my birthday!).
