Thank you for joining us! Today we are wrapping up my Five Day Challenge with a Q&A session. If you are yet to look at it, go and check out the last five episodes, where we really dug in deep to teach you how you plan, create and then actually go ahead and launch, in a ninety day period, whether you're launching a business or a product. Even if you missed the challenge, stick around, as I'm going live on my Facebook Page and I'll be answering everybody's questions about how to do this launch thing, so listen in carefully, because I know that you're really going to get so much out of it!

I'm super excited about today, because when we are doing our launch Q&A's, these are usually our big days, with lots of questions. People also know that when I do a Q&A after one of my challenges, I also do my giveaways. Today, I have a really fun prize, from my Dance Studios, as well as some other really cool things and I'm going to spin the wheel every five minutes and then I'll be picking a winner from the people who have either posted their questions or have been engaging with me inside of She's Building Her Empire Facebook Community, so join me on the show today and see if you're a winner!
