The Flourishing Entrepreneur Podcast 028 | Accepting Fear + It Takes a Village with Dana Kadwell & Courtney Hopper
Do you know how to handle fear when first starting your business? Today, we'll talk about how to get around and work with your fears!
In this episode, I’m talking to Courtney and Dana, who have seen their vision for their company evolve over the past 12 years from a singular concept into multi businesses that are constantly being grown, argued over, and perfected.
Successful businesses are not stumbled upon, but created by determination, courage, and a little bit of luck.
There was no magic formula they followed or a specific business plan. They took the leap and had each other’s hand to hold along the way. Making big changes and taking big risks can be scary, lonely, and isolating, which is the heart of what we’re diving into today.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Knowing how to deal with fear
- Learning that fear is constant and normal
- How you can control your emotions of fear
- What are the things you should know when starting your business
- Tips for your business
