189 | HOT SEAT: The Hard Truths About Gr...

Robyn Clark
About this episode

What’s the hardest part of running a jewelry business? Let’s be real—it’s NOT learning Instagram, figuring out pricing, or even making sales. It’s getting out of your own way.

In this Hot Seat episode, I’m sitting down with Charu Boeckel, jewelry designer and founder of Amuleto Divine Fine Jewelry, to talk about the biggest obstacles jewelry business owners face and how to break through them. Charu puts me in the spotlight, firing off the big, bold, questions about my journey—from the biggest mindset blocks that nearly held me back to the brutal reality of the first two years in business (spoiler alert: they’re HARD).

We’re talking about what it REALLY takes to grow a thriving jewelry brand—the fears, the setbacks, and the game-changing lessons that can help you push through when you feel stuck. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, fear of showing up, or wondering if you’re cut out for this… this episode is for you. Get ready for some tough love, major breakthroughs, and the mindset shifts that can change everything in your business. 

 

 

What You Will Learn in this Episode:

  • The #1 reason jewelry business owners struggle to grow
  • Why the first two years in business feel impossible—but get easier
  • How self-doubt stops you from making sales (and what to do about it)
  • The secret to building confidence as a jewelry entrepreneur

 

 

Topics Discussed:

  •  Robyn’s hardest moments in business (and how she overcame them)
  • The mindset shift that changed everything for her growth
  • What makes the biggest difference between struggling and thriving
  • How fear stops jewelry designers from reaching their full potential
  • The best advice for pushing through when you feel stuck
  • Why taking action (even when it’s scary) is the only way forward
