    Episode 70: The Freedom of Multiple Income Streams

    Episode 70: The Freedom of Multiple Income Streams

    Resiliency Series 5 of 5. Today, we want to shatter entrepreneurial shame! When we decide to start a business, we're filled with excitement and fear, probably in equal measure. We watch what others are doing and we spend a lot of time learning. Something that isn't spoken about, though, is that there is a pervasive undercurrent of shame if your business doesn't meet expectations. It takes a strong will to realize that outside expectations don't have to be your expectations. Success comes in all shapes and sizes, and we want to remind you of that and that you have the ability to create business your way and with multiple income streams.
