Unfortunately, most people stop there, in the land of hopes and dreams, and don’t do the work to actually create a different kind of life for themselves. And it makes sense: change can be difficult and humans tend not to want to grow beyond a certain point of comfort.  Not so much with today’s special guest, Shannin Williams, who went from wishing she had a successful business of her own, to actually creating something far more impactful and lucrative than what she left behind. In addition to hearing Shannin’s story of building up her business from nothing, you will discover: How to avoid the most dangerous pitfalls when growing a business How to use free resources as well as paid ones to create momentum in your business Why coaching is one of the best investments Shannin feels she’s made in her company and how she gets the most from it For the full show notes and transcript visit https://besu
