In this podcast, Lauren Lapping from Australia joins us to share her journey with entrepreneurship, from running her salon to helping others set up successful businesses of their own as a coach. Her story is nothing short of an inspiration, especially for those who are aspiring to become entrepreneurs themselves!   

Business owner life is interesting...   

𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬   #1 Hustle There is no short cut to success, no secret that can help you earn it over night. It involves a lot of blood and sweat but as long as you have the determination you will succeed.  

 #2 Don't give in to the ifs and buts  There will be many times in life when you will have great opportunities, and excellent ideas that can be executed but your fear and insecurities will stop you. In such moments you need to stop listening to whatever is holding you back and start taking action. Pour your heart and soul into whatever project you have decided to work on, make mistakes and learn from them but don't hesitate from giving it a shot!

 1:12-3:29: Lapping starts with a warm introduction, and tells us about her lash and brow salon business, the launch of her product line, and her experience with training people.

5:45-6:50: Here our host and Lapping talk about the difference between selling services as an independent business owner and as an employee. Businesses don't work out for everyone, we are all built to do different things!  

7:05-13:35: What does the business owner's life look like? Interesting and exciting but also lonely and tiresome sometimes. In this section of the podcast, join us for the not-so-glamorous aspect of running your own business.   

15:07-21:16: Lapping tells us how she got into the beauty therapy industry, her experience learning and then practising, as well as the hurdles she faced along the way! How she navigated her journey through parenthood, being a housewife, and then back to her passion for beauty services, this time in the form of her own salon!   

31:49-33:18: Here Lapping talks about her business practices, keeping up with the supply and demand and making sure that her business is efficiently managed at all times!  

 40:00-49:00: Are you a people pleaser who finds it difficult to say no to people? Well, this segment of the podcast might resonate well with you and you might find some valuable advice that can pull you out of this habit.  

51:50-1:13:24 This section features a wholesome conversation on how rewarding business life can be, finding work-life balance and true happiness in what you do, as well as the importance of working smart along with working hard.
