Fear is a 'funny' thing.
It will make you think you will fail if you try (which you might). But fear says it's final. That's the part that isn't true.
Today, we want you to be inspired by a marriedpreneur couple who, when they first came to us, was distraught and fearful from their past attempts to launch a business, and they lost everything. However, they still had a glimmer of hope.
The husband was in the banking industry while, at the time, the wife was working for a local non-profit organization helping with admin and branding. They ran a branding company on the side and needed a strategy to grow their business as they had always envisioned.
They had been gripped by fear, but they knew they needed to change if they wanted to see change.
(Quick note, fear keeps many visionaries stuck because of what might happen. Our word of wisdom is to take calculated risks and get guidance from trusted and proven sources- that have receipts!)
Back to the story, Andrea, the wife, desired to do her business full time but needed a 'calculated risk' path. Once they invested in coaching with us, we walked her through that process, and her employer became a client!
AND she also landed a municipal contract for branding!
Today she is consulting with the City, as well as with other organizations. In fact, she was recently recognized and awarded by the City for her contribution!
We share this quick story to inspire you and offer support on this marriedpreneur journey. Fear never plays fair. If you're like Team Harris, triggered by past attempts to grow your business, and are ready for a change, join our Q3 Strategic Growth Plan Masterclass For Marriedpreneurs.
We will discuss calculated risk options for your journey.
We're rootin' for you!
Here's to living purposefully, powerfully, and profitably in sync,
