  • Why I’m Not a Coach & What I Love About The Online Course Business
    Welcome to episode 28 of the Free and Fearless podcast. Today, I'll answer one of the top questions I get. Why I’m not a coach when this is such a profitable business model? When everyone seems to be doing it this way? When I could easily grow my income if I offer coaching packages right now? And especially why I don’t do it when people from my audience have asked me for that?

    I’ll keep it real, as always, and I’ll discuss why this business model isn’t for me and why the other one I’m so in love with - being a course creator - is perfect for me.

  • The Role of Passion in Business and How to Use it for Growth
    Welcome to episode 27 of the Free and Fearless podcast. Today I’m going to talk about the reason why I do what I do, why this show and any other content I create exists, and why I am where I am today. That’s passion.

    It’s what helped me start the business, what helped me keep going, and what always keeps me motivated to grow it no matter what.

    I’ll share a bit more about the role passion plays in all this and why I consider it one of the main ingredients of any form of success, and also how you can start a passion-based business and what its main characteristics are.
