Imagine the feeling of that first day after you hand in your notice and go all in on your own business. How would you feel? Nicola Pye has done just that, and I have the pleasure of interviewing her to find out how she feels now she is officially out of her corporate job and living her dream of running her own business.

 

Nicola tells all about her life before working with me and what that tipping point was to start her own business. She reveals what was holding her back from doing it sooner as well as how she created her first offer and the challenges she faced to get things off the ground. 

 

I’m so thrilled for Nicola, and just remember to hold on to that vision of how you would feel if this were your day to quit your 9 to 5 and start your own business.
