245 - Welcome back to the latest episode of the Freedom Focus Photography podcast!
Ever had one of those moments where you think, “Is this actually happening?”.
I had one of those moments early in my photography business that I’ll never forget.
Picture this: I'm standing in the bank, clutching my first check for $105 and change, ready to open my shiny new business account.
The minimum to open was $100, and I was ready to bootstrap my little business to profitability.
That was until the bank employee went to deposit my check, showed his colleague the check and laughed. 😳
Now, for some people, that might have been the end of the road.
But for me? It was just the beginning.
I walked out of that bank more determined than ever to make my business a success.
Because, honestly, the thought of going back to a 9-to-5 was way more terrifying than any snickering bank teller.
In the latest episode of the Freedom Focus Photography podcast, I sit down with Heather Lahtinen, our resident mindset ninja, and we dive into the power of belief and perseverance. We share some of our own cringeworthy early business moments and how we used those experiences to fuel our drive.
