Episode 40: How Joining Supportive Communities Of Fellow Entrepreneurs Can Help You Succeed

You love running your business – it’s your baby. It’s the work that you love doing and it fulfils you. You want to grow your business and create more freedom for yourself while doing what you love because that’s what it’s all about, right?

The only problem is that this whole entrepreneurship thing can also leave you exasperated, not knowing what to do next to take your business where you know it can go.

Sometimes you doubt yourself. Sometimes you feel stuck. 

I know exactly how isolating and stressful that can feel because I’ve been there. It can be really tough not having people who fully understand what you do to turn to for advice & support.

But you don’t have to do it all alone – in fact it’s a proven fact that coming together with other like-minded entrepreneurs is one of THE most powerful things you can do for your business.

Today I have 4 mini interviews with 4 awesome entrepreneurs who have been guests in previous podcast episodes. We dig into how they built a supportive community of fellow entrepreneurs that they could rely on and how that has impacted their businesses.

In this episode we’ll cover:

• How to find like-minded people & build relationships with them.
• How to deal with resistance.
• How peer mentorship has been “life saving” for Brenda.
• The benefits of having a group of like-minded people around you.
• How to deal with the isolation of working alone.
• The importance of getting an outside perspective on your ideas.
• How accountability drives action.
• How talking to people who understand what you’re dealing with can benefit your mental well-being.
