The first of a 12 part series where Hailey shares her asset-building journey. This month we're learning about VC funding and how entrepreneurs like Shaan Puri and Codie Sanchez think.

In this episode, I ask a simple question - what is the quality of your thoughts, ideas and solutions? It's not enough to go through the motions - quality matters.

"Marketing" seems to be a scary word in the online business world - some people believe you either have the magic or you don't... But in this episode I'm breaking down how I view marketing and where I see people struggle the most, it's not with their Instagram stories, it's their thoughts about marketing that are making things harder than they should be.

Building your business is 100% dependent on the thoughts you have about yourself, your product/service, and your clients. You need to have confidence, trust, and belief in all three to successfully make sales and serve people well. ⁣

This is your main job. ⁣ Everything else (where you decide to market, what exactly your website says, your “funnel”) is secondary. ⁣All those pieces are we can test, edit and adjust to serve your goals the best. ⁣ ⁣ But we get nowhere without your deep commitment to believing powerful, action-spurring thoughts about you, your clients, and your offers.⁣

Sometimes we think hiring someone into our business is going to solve a lot more than it does. I'm walking through 4 scenarios where hiring is NOT the answer to the challenge you're having and 4 ways you can prepare as a CEO to make sure it is a great experience for you (and the person you hire!).

You don’t have to love being in debt or having low cashflow. But you do need to increase your tolerance for these very real parts of business ownership and decrease their impact on your decision making.
