I’ll be discussing my own struggles with imposter syndrome today on the podcast.
We often hear about manifesting or envisioning where we are going to be in 1, 2, or even 5 years. And for most of us, we can do that.

Let’s explore what are some of the first steps you can take today.
The customer journey and experience matters. This is one of the first major lessons that I learned when starting my journey into online marketing.

Today I’ll be exploring the value of developing interpersonal relationships with other entrepreneurs, and just how much you can gain with those interactions.
What do you have to be thankful for? It can be all too easy to dwell upon failures or areas of our business where we aren’t doing as well as we would like. The current climate of get-rich-quick gurus only exacerbates this problem. Why do we focus on what we haven’t done yet… instead of reflecting on the journey that we’ve already made? Let’s talk about getting into an aura of gratitude today… on the Boots to Business Podcast.
