The Heart & Hustle Podcast

Today is a spicy episode. It’s a pretty big hot take on a somewhat controversial topic: is going to college necessary to be an entrepreneur or start your small business?   We have MANY thoughts on this and we’re about to get into them ALL on the show today. We answer the question of whether or not WE went to college for what we’re doing now, we give our two cents on if college is necessary at all and specifically for small business owners, and we get pretty heated on the why behind our answers.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/219-do-you-have-to-go-to-college-to-be-an-entrepreneur   The Heart Conference: www.theheartuniversity.com/conference   Knack Bags: https://knack-bags.pxf.io/QOzK6x Use code “HEARTKNACK” for a free TSA lock and make sure to add the TSA lock to your cart before checking out to receive your free gift.    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today we’re going back to the very beginning of our Instagram journeys. When we first started being intentional with the app as a platform to create a business and personal brand back in 2015-2016.    While we look back and notice things we did right to get us where we are today, we also look back and MEGA cringe at the silly, stupid, or plain harmful things we did at the beginning of our Instagram journeys to try and get more followers, be accepted, or be considered cool.   Today we’re breaking it down into the top things we did right AND wrong in the very beginning of creating a brand on Instagram.   P.S. Full permission to stalk our Insta’s and scroll down to around 2015-2017 to laugh with us today on the show.    Are you ready to travel back to the past and learn some fun Instagram tips!?     Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/215-instagram-tips-what-we-did-right-wrong-from-the-very-beginning   The Heart Conference: www.theheartuniversity.com/conference    HoneyBook: share.honeybook.com/heart In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity
