For this episode, Alex and Pooh are joined by Jo and Vicky, the founders of The Canine Business Academy, two incredibly inspirational ladies doing great things. They get into detail around money, how to talk about it, break it down and be comfortable with it, and most importantly, around imposter syndrome and getting confident with yourself and allowing yourself to believe that you deserve to be successful.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When you share the fact that you are a business owner, you start to believe and act more like one. Take the right action and say goodbye to imposter syndrome.
• A lot of dog business owners started out offering services as a hobby because they like dogs. Many are stuck in that hobbyist mindset, and don´t charge enough.
• Understanding the market you are trying to serve is critical in all industries. The type of customer you want to attract dictates how you shape the services you offer.
• Keep persevering. It takes time to change your mindset and transform your business.
• Taking action is the thing that moves you forward fastest. Just taking courses and doing nothing leaves you going nowhere.
• Stop comparing yourself to others, especially on social media.
• Every business needs a purpose. Focusing in on a group of people whose problem you are there to solve helps you to identify the purpose of your business.

BEST MOMENTS

“You can change whatever you want to change in your business.”
“The two things that people always throw money at are their kids and their pets.”
“They're still running their business like a hobby, running themselves ragged and working so many hours for nothing.”
“It all comes back down to that societal pressure of, oh, you can't possibly do anything different.”
“There is an abundance of information out there to the point where it's paralyzing.”

This AirBnB Business has allowed each of them to create their own tailor-made ‘lifestyle by design.’
