About this episode

Becoming your own boss is exciting and empowering when you dream about it and see it romanticized on social media, but the reality of doing what it actually takes to be your boss is freaking scary. When you want to go out on your own, become your own boss, have the freedom to work where you want and when you want but you’re scared sh*tless don’t you dare quit!

You are 100% capable of leading yourself, being your own boss, and being a successful entrepreneur. It’s not going to happen without fear, anxiety, nerves, and all the negative chatter in your head working overtime to convince you otherwise, and we've got the online marketing expert and multi million dollar entrepreneur and author of Two Weeks Notice, Amy Porterfield, here to break it down for you step by step.

Amy went from corporate girl to million dollar success story that still struggled with doubts and belief that she was enough. In this episode Amy and Lisa are coming for all of your excuses.

Behind your fear is a thought many of us have, ‘what will people think?’ The powerhouse question Amy is asking you to ask yourself here is this, ‘what are you willing to burn down and build back to create the life you absolutely want?’ It may be relationships, toxic dependencies, lack of boundaries, or a miserable nine to five you feel stuck at. How much is your happiness worth? What are you willing to do to build the life you dream of? Permission from others is not needed.
