The online business landscape has undergone a remarkable boom in recent years, and it's poised for even greater growth ahead!

 

Today, the prospect of earning a living from your laptop, all while staying in bed, seems more attainable than ever before. However, there's a crucial truth that often gets lost amidst the glamour of the online world.

 

Many individuals tend to showcase only their triumphs, flaunting impressive earnings, a steady stream of clients, and the promise that you can achieve the same if you invest in their latest course or offer. But what remains concealed are the untold stories of what goes on behind the scenes.

 

How long did it truly take them to reach that point? How many unsuccessful launches did they endure? How often did they find themselves relying on credit cards to cover expenses?

 

The issue with this "showmanship" is that it's all too easy to fall into the trap of comparison, leading to self-doubt and a persistent feeling of inadequacy.

 

In reality, most businesses don't begin to turn a profit until at least the third year, and that's assuming you're not plagued by procrastination or constant uncertainty about whether you have what it takes.

 

That's why I've invited my good friend Kirsty, a candid and straight-talking business strategist, to engage in an open and honest conversation with me. Together, we shed light on the genuine experiences of the majority of new business owners, helping you realise that you're not alone in your journey.

 

So, take a moment to listen in, and don't hesitate to share your thoughts. Whether you agree or disagree, let's open up the conversation…

 

Introducing Kirsty Carr;

 

"Kirsty has spent her career as a Procurement Practitioner, working with several major brands across projects that included the negotiation and management of multi-million pound sponsorship deals, celebrity endorsements, talent management, record deals, TV & Radio Advertising production, PR and Communications, and large scale marketing events.

A lover of results-oriented action, she now uses her extensive skills coupled with her CARLI Method™ COLLABORATE | ACT | REFLECT | LEARN | IMPROVE to help creative and service based entrepreneurs navigate the corporate buying process, including the people, systems and jargon used, so they can achieve their goal of adding a Corporate Client stream and grow their business."

The life of an entrepreneur can be a tricky one.

We're often left trying to keep all of the plates spinning as we juggle the challenges and obstacles that life throws our way. 

For most of us, those challenges are short lived, and we soon learn to move past them, yet for others, those challenges can be life-long.

In this episode I've invited my gorgeous client and good friend, Sandra Postma on to share her story and how she manages to juggle building her business around a life with chronic illness.

It's so important to try and raise more awareness around this, as these illnesses are often invisible, and go completely unnoticed - making it paramount for us as buisness owners to be more aware, and to ask more questions so we can to adapt and adjust, to be more inclusive.

So go ahead and take a listen...
