Be the first to know when we launch Business Bootcamp Live! https://herfirst100k.com/biz-waitlist When I started my business, I had just $40 in my bank account. No trust fund, no corporate safety net, just a dream and a whole lot of grit. Fast forward, and that $40 has turned into a multi-million dollar company that’s helped over five million women change their relationship with money. But it didn’t happen without mistakes––and a lot of hard lessons along the way. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the seven most important lessons I’ve learned over nine years of building Her First $100K. These are the strategies, mindset shifts, and sometimes counterintuitive moves that have made the biggest difference—not just in our bottom line, but in my life as an entrepreneur.Mentioned in this episode:Business Bootcamp Live: https://herfirst100k.com/biz-waitlist Read transcripts, learn more about our guests and sponsors, and get more resources at https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/entrepreneurship-lessons/Looking for accountability, live coaching, and deeper financial education?
