Too often, entrepreneurs fall back before they've even gotten started because self-doubt has them thinking that they need another degree, certification, or a specific number of years of experience to be qualified or "ready". These are all lies, lies, on top of lies.
Everything you need to get started is already within you. And this episode will help you start believing it.
Alex Minor, video marketing strategist and podcast producer, used his innate skills, curiosity, and willingness to learn as his building blocks to start a business so fulfilling that he can't envision giving it up.
As a result of lots of research, practice, some hard knocks, and personal development investments, Alex now owns a thriving digital content marketing company.
Check out Alex's story. Then imagine what the next chapter of your story could look like once you fully maximize your own skills.
