Finding Your Business Tribe as a Solopreneur - with Dr. Julie Luscombe

08/24/22 • 34 min

The Confident CEO - for Female Entrepreneurs

In this episode, we cover so much goodness from Dr. Julie Luscombe, a qualified coach. We set up our businesses at very similar times and have often had conversations around professional loneliness and creating your own business tribe when working as a solopreneur. Here, Dr. Julie gives her top tips for combatting professional loneliness. We also delve into the conversation of setting up your own business; the challenges and experiences this brings, and how finding your tribe keeps you sane and helps propel your business forward.
In this episode, we also discuss the differences between coaching and mentoring, and when one might be better used than the other. In the online business space, the words coaching and mentoring seem to get used interchangeably. But, it's important to recognise that coaching and mentoring are two very different approaches to working with clients.
We also dive into talking about imposter syndrome, and Julie shares her top tips for getting comfortable with feeling uncomfortable and appreciating what you and your business have to offer.

The Side of the 6 and 7 Figure Course Incomes That No-One is Talking About - with Megan Huber

In this episode, Megan and I discuss the realities behind the shiny 6 and 7 income disclosures and course launches and how they aren't always telling the whole story of launching an online course.

It's so easy to become transfixed with the multi-thousand dollar launches that we see on social media. But what's the truth behind these launches? Are they really 'overnight successes?'

We lift the lid on what it really means to run a 6 and 7-figure business in the online course space. We discuss that there's more to it than the shiny Instagram posts we're shown, and how everyone starts out somewhere before achieving whatever success looks like for them.
