{Only Two Spots Left!!!} Applications are closing soon for my Exclusive 1:1 Expansion Coaching: Apply today
When I made the decision to launch my own business, after 10 years of juggling a side hustle while working in Corporate – I expected support/encouragement from the people around me. 
The funny thing was…..the more I talked about my plans, and what I was doing…..the more negativity and skepticism I ran into. It dampened my excitement, and made me question my choices (and my sanity!). 
I was getting comments like:
“When it doesn’t work out, you can always re-apply for your job!”
“What about the benefits?!?! What are you gonna do without the benefits?!?”
“What if you run out of clients?!”
Friends and family, who had always been my pillars of support….suddenly became the bearers of doubt and negativity. They questioned my decisions, they focused on the risks/challenges associated with entrepreneurship….and I know their concerns were well-intentioned, but I was overwhelmed by the constant stream of negativity!
And I’ll be honest – this negativity took a massive toll on my confidence, and my belief in myself. There were moments when I wondered – am I making a mistake?!?
I had to look at things from a different perspective, and realize that the negativity was coming from a place of fear and uncertainty. 
Sound familiar?
Here’s a sneak peek at what you’ll hear about, once you hit PLAY:
