212 | How Alanna Boss Launched Her Jewel...

Robyn Clark
About this episode

Are you sitting on the dream of starting your jewelry business but waiting until things feel “perfect”? This episode is your sign to just start. I sat down with Alanna Boss, the inspiring founder of Boss Eclectic, who launched her jewelry business less than a year ago and has already landed in retail stores, hosted events, and built a growing brand. What makes Alanna’s story so powerful isn’t just how far she’s come—it’s how fast she moved, all while working full-time in a high-pressure legal job.

We talk about overcoming fear, getting scrappy, and trusting your instincts. If you’re stuck in overthinking mode, this episode will give you the clarity, courage, and conviction to take your first (or next) big step.

 

 

What You Will Learn in this Episode:

  1. Why taking fast, imperfect action beats waiting for the “right time”

  2. How to build your business while juggling a full-time job

  3. The mindset shifts that helped Alanna get into retail stores within months

  4. How community and mentorship can fast-track your growth

 

Topics Discussed:

  • Alanna’s decision to start Boss Eclectic

  • Overcoming fear of visibility and selling

  • Juggling entrepreneurship and a full-time legal career

  • Joining the Jewelry Business Academy

  • Building confidence through community

  • The biggest lessons from her first 8 months in business
