Episode notes

Tara Newman is the Founder and CEO of the Bold Profit Academy and host of the Bold Money Revolution. She joins the show today for a conversation about the importance of remembering why most of us start businesses and seek out entrepreneurship, how common growth strategies can lead to a lack of resiliency, and how service providers can avoid the mindset of selling themselves. This is a great episode for those wanting to make their business work for them and their life, rather than having their life be working for their business.

Key Takeaways:

[3:58] Many of us come to entrepreneurship out of necessity. Tara talks about her diagnosis of Lyme Disease, and how getting COVID-19 also flared up her EB Virus. To heal, she needed proper time and space to focus on her health journey, which having your own business can allow.

This resulted in many of us having to re-engineer our businesses.

[19:32] Tara explains how the online business model is the most costly thing she has ever seen.

[23:03] Tara is a big believer that you can be a millionaire without having a million-dollar business.

[24:49] There is no regulation for digital advertising and research shows that up to 88% of ad clicks are fraudulent.
