I wholeheartedly feel that mentorship is important to have when starting a business. It is something I didn’t have and wish I would have known was available and invested in at the start 3 years ago. I wasted A LOT of time and money trying to figure things out on my own and still find I am going round in circles in some areas.
While being an entrepreneur is exciting, it can be lonely at times. You are making all the decisions yourself, you create your offerings, you are the sole driver of sales and success, you are wearing a million hats aside from “creator” – ones that you may not be the best with or even like.
If you don’t have like-minded people in your circle of friends, you may have a hard time venting, bouncing ideas around, getting support and encouragement when you are having a hard time, and ultimately getting guidance on what your next steps should be.
This was my biggest struggle. No one I am close with has their own business or is interested in starting one. As much as they are supportive in their own way, it is not quite the support I need to move forward in my business.
Having someone in your corner to brainstorm with, to ask you thought-provoking questions that gets you thinking outside the box, to guide you when you have no idea what to do next, to keep you accountable, to encourage you when you get a dose of comparisonitis, and to push you outside of your comfort zone – these are invaluable things that are worth every penny to have in your life.
That is what Cassy Field offers through her 6 month and 3 month mentorship program. She successfully launched her own business in 5 months. She compiles all her experience and learnings from the mentorships she received personally into 1 program that will give you all the tools and ultimately the foundation to launch your business on so that you are set up for success. Who doesn’t want a mentor like her behind them?
So get comfy with a cup of organic tea (preferably from Woash haha) and get ready to learn all about the steps in launching a business! And stay tuned next week for part 2 as this is a jam packed episode full of goodness for the aspiring entrepreneur!
