Episode 192: What if you could turn your biggest insecurity into your greatest strength? On today’s episode, Natalie has the pleasure of connecting with SUPERDRIP founder and CEO, Brett Mirman to find out how she did just that. After struggling her whole life with a chronic skin condition called hyperhidrosis, Brett ultimately found a way to channel her frustration into the product and community of her dreams. The two leave no stone unturned as they dive into the complexities of running your own business, creating a product from scratch, cultivating a strong community, and staying in your own lane. This episode might even inspire you, as it did Natalie, to view your insecurities in a different light and to take action on whatever’s holding you back from embracing them. So tune in and remember: you never know where embracing your flaws and turning to confidence might lead you. 

  

Today’s episode dives into:   

  • The complex reality of running your own business  
  • Why having a strong sense of self is essential when starting a brand from scratch   
  • Where Brett adopted her love of branding and learned the value of working for others   
  • The "AHA" moment that led her to create SUPERDRIP
  • Her journey through product development and budgeting  
  • Community and why it’s been essential to the success of her business
