Hands up if you love a great story! As an avid reader and a professional writer, I've always been fascinated by stories. And while storytelling hasn't been a topic that I've tackled in a while, it hasn't escaped my notice that the online business world continues to be besieged by an approach to storytelling that's a weird combination of super basic and ultra toxic. What's the alternative? How do you tell your stories in a way that isn't the same old canned, repetitive trope, or worst yet serving up drama and trauma? In this episode, I'm talking about how we need to think differently about how we use storytelling in our business and focus on an approach that's based on being respectful and responsible.

Taking a Responsible & Respectful Approach to Storytelling

Growing a solo service business is tough. It's even harder when you're bombarded with BS advice that steers you away from your values and why you started your business in the first place. 

This is the podcast for solo creatives and consultants who want to remain as a team of one and have zero interest in the hustle and grind of typical business teachings. 

Most podcasts for solopreneurs and freelancers, hosted by out-of-touch celebrity entrepreneurs who haven't offered one-to-one services in years, miss the mark on today's market realities.

Maggie Patterson, a service business owner for 20 years, understands that to stay solo, you need to know what matters to you, what works for you, and what you should completely ignore. 

In each episode, she examines one piece of conventional business advice to discover how it may hurt your business or be completely wrong for you as a solo business owner. 

Join Maggie for real talk to help you avoid burnout or the desire to entirely burn down your business to open a flower shop, book store, or cat cafe. (Because those cats won't pay the bills.)
