Episode Details

When I first began my online business over five years ago, I couldn’t have imagined the shape it would take today. There were just so many unknowns. And while I can’t say I wish things had ended up any different, I do look back on some of the decisions I made early on knowing what I know now and wonder how I might approach things differently if I had to do it all over again.

Unless someone invents a time machine, I doubt I’ll ever get the chance to make use of these lessons – but for anyone out there in the early stages of their business, maybe I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made or grow your business even faster.

In this episode, you’ll hear…

• Personal insights and lessons learned over the years in digital entrepreneurship
• Viewing content creation on social media as a critical practice for developing a unique voice and style
• The significance of choosing and focusing on fewer social media platforms
• The misconception of a 'secret formula' for business success
• Starting with the basics to avoid being overwhelmed
