The Risks I Took to Grow My Business (Including Smuggling!)


Listen Later

Entrepreneurship is a wild ride—you think you’re scaling smoothly, and BAM! A curveball hits. That’s exactly what happened to me. In this episode, I share the unexpected challenges my business faced when it took off in Canada and how we problem-solved on the fly. From shipping nightmares to retail opportunities that forced us to think on our feet, this journey taught me that growing pains are part of the game. The key? Stop overthinking, take action, and learn as you go!

📌 Key Takeaways
✅ Growth brings challenges – More sales, more problems. But that’s a GOOD thing!
✅ Creative problem-solving is key – Google is your best friend.
✅ Think fast, pivot faster – When one solution fails, find another.
✅ Mistakes are part of the process – The sooner you embrace them, the faster you grow.
✅ Entrepreneurship = Freedom – But only if you build your business around your life, not the other way around
