  • 32: Give Your Two Weeks Notice: Turn Your Hobby Into a Money-Making Business with Amy Porterfield

    Let me ask you a question…whose dream do you devote most of your days to? A third of our lives are spent working. If that truth makes your heart sink because you know you’re spending so much of your precious time helping your company’s “bottom line,” you’re not alone. Most people have been led to believe that entrepreneurship is only for a chosen few — the ones with connections, a nest egg, and original ideas you could never compete with. But most people are wrong. Building your own business has never been more accessible. 

    In this episode, I want to introduce to you Amy Porterfield. We’re going to hear about Amy’s story about how she went from sitting on the sidelines in a corporate boardroom to a multi million dollar a year business owner.

    Throughout the episode, we will also talk about Amy’s new book, Two Weeks’ Notice.

    If you’re listening and thinking about turning your hobby into a money-making business, then this episode is just for you.

    In this episode we cover:

    • The concept of “unbossing”. What this is and what does the process of “unbossing” look like?
    • Strategies for dealing with money anxiety. What if you’re scared to quit because you don’t think you’ll earn enough to support yourself?
    • Some of the most successful ways we're seeing people make money online right now.
