How to design an online business you truly enjoy with Shanna Skidmore (Copy)
One of my absolute fave ways to create content is to hop on a podcast and casually shoot the business breeze with other creators! You hear the most interesting stories...ones that might not have ever surfaced in something more scripted!
So you can imagine just how much my day was made when someone I, myself, have followed, learned from and just super admired for a while now invited me to be a guest on her brand new podcast called "Consider The Wildflowers."
Ya'll, if you've never met/heard of Shanna Skidmore–besides being an absolute gem in the financial education world and the go-to lady for helping you confidently crunch the numbers in your creative online business–she also happens to be thee absolute most loveliest human, and your life will 100% be better for knowing her and her business! 🤌
P.S. Want to connect and hear from Shanna live? She's getting ready to host an INCREDIBLE free masterclass on "The Art of Six Figures" all about building a profitable, thriving, life-giving business business on your own terms!
So what is this new podcast about?
For the past 15 years, Shanna (as a Financial Consultant/Advisor) has the amazing opportunity to hear thousands of stories from entrepreneurs around the world and see and hear the "real" behind the highlights reels of the successful!
While we just see the victories and the progress, Shanna has had a very intimate first row seat for the hardest part of their journeys...the part that's not polite to talk about at the dinner table, but ultimately shaped the brands and the people behind them.
This new podcast Shanna has created is all about sharing the untold stories of how industry leaders, founders, and up-and-coming entrepreneurs got their start, INCLUDING (and especially) the rocky bits.
These stories are meant to inspire creators everywhere to be redefining success and what it would look like to build a life and business on your OWN terms!
I'm so grateful I got to be a part of this project by telling my own story!
