Episode 08: Three Keys to Entrepreneurial Success

Show Notes:

🎧 What Freedom Looks Like For Me...

When you see someone who’s built a thriving creative business, it’s easy to assume the path was smooth. But behind every success story is a chapter of uncertainty, reinvention—and a whole lot of courage.

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my own journey, from being laid off in my late 50s to building a business that gives me time, money, and location freedom. You’ll hear what I didn’t have (a list, a strategy, any tech skills!)—and the 3 core traits that helped me move forward anyway.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

  • The real story behind why I started my business from scratch

  • The 3 traits that helped me push through doubt and overwhelm

    1. A willingness to learn

    2. Perseverance when things broke

    3. A commitment to take imperfect action

  • Why “freedom” is about so much more than income

  • What I’ve gained (and what I’ve let go of) by being my own boss

  • How to start thinking differently about failure and success

🔥 Quote of the Episode:

“The fastest way to succeed is to double your failure rate.” — Thomas J. Watson Sr.
(...and why I’ve taken that to heart in my business.)
