135: She made 1 million in her side hustle but that’s not her definition of success with Fiona McKenzie

She made 1 million in her side hustle but that’s not her definition of success. Fiona McKenzie, a two-time participant in the Goddess Embodiment Sisterhood (my mastermind), shares her journey of creating businesses to address personal challenges.  She joined us for the Seven Figure Flip campaign last year, and today we delve deeper into her story.  We discuss how true success is not about hitting the seven-figure revenue mark but about something much more profound and personal. We highlight the importance of being passionate about the problem you're solving, starting small with a minimum viable product, and iterating based on customer feedback. Fiona McKenzie emphasises personal growth and family values and also stresses the importance of continuously enhancing their app based on user feedback to stay competitive and meet customer needs.
