In this episode, I dive into the real, unfiltered truth about starting an online business in 2025. Things have changed drastically from the early days of online business, and I’m breaking down the biggest misconceptions, mistakes, and the strategies you actually need to succeed.

Key Takeaways:

✔️ It’s Not as Easy as It Used to Be – Gone are the days of throwing up a website and making money overnight. The industry is more saturated than ever, which means strategy and consistency are non-negotiable.

✔️ Social Media Won’t Do the Work for You – Just posting a few times isn’t enough. You need a plan, engaging content, and a long-term commitment to building trust with your audience.

✔️ Branding and Website Matter More Than Ever – A poorly designed website and DIY branding will turn potential customers away. Professional, cohesive branding is key in 2025.

✔️ You Must Be Hands-On in Your Business – You can hire help, but no one will care about your business as much as you do. If you’re not actively involved, it will show.

✔️ Passion and Longevity Matter – If you’re just in this for the money, you’ll struggle. Building a business takes time, and you need a genuine passion to push through the ups and downs.

I also share my personal journey—how I transitioned from network marketing to coaching to my done-for-you services today. My biggest lesson? Alignment and intention are EVERYTHING when it comes to long-term success.
