“The best day in my 9-5 job is still not even close to the worst day as an entrepreneur.”

—  Amy Porterfield

Amy Porterfield helps women business owners around the world find professional autonomy, independence, achievement, and success that is FAR beyond what a corporate glass ceiling would traditionally allow — so you already know that I am a big fan of her mission! Through her bestselling courses and top-ranked podcast, Online Marketing Made Easy, she’s helped hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs turn in their two weeks notice and trade burnout for freedom, income, and impact. 

During this conversation, she not only shares some fantastic tips for building your business with more ease, she also spills the juicy details about her latest project (and yes, you’ll hear it here first)!

Tune in to hear how she gained the confidence to build an amazing personal brand, her foolproof technique for avoiding social-media-fuelled professional envy, and why she gave herself grace for a $100k mistake.

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• Two things you should focus on first when you’re in the early stages of launching or growing your business
• Why taking action is the most important thing — even if the action is imperfect or you don’t feel “ready” yet  
• The importance of building your own supportive community of fellow entrepreneurs (even if it’s just through texting!)
