Self Love and Entrepreneurship with Shafonne Myers {Ep 040)

Raise your hand if you’ve ever had some SERIOUS doubt about your ability to actually make this whole business idea WORK? I know I have! Welcome back to another episode of Business Straight Up with Brooke Summer – and this one is going to be something that kind of merges my two businesses together. Today’s episode is ALL about self love and entrepreneurship – because I promise you that if you continue to ignore self love and confidence in your life and business, you won’t be able to achieve your BIGGEST goals.

I remember starting as a photographer, I was CONSTANTLY looking at other business owners and photographers to see how THEY did it. What did THEY write on their website, what stories did THEY tell? While I was careful never to copy, it heavily influenced what I shared, because I figured if they’re successful, I need to repeat that, right? WRONG. My biggest growth in my business came when taking the scariest steps and forcing myself to fully step into the idea that hey… maybe I AM good at this. Maybe I AM good enough to charge these prices. Maybe I AM empowering other women. Maybe I AM changing lives. Maybe I AM worth everything I want.

Self love is ESSENTIAL when it comes to running a business and Shafonne and I go into why self love and entrepreneurship is so important for your business (and yourself). Shafonne is a badass business owner who specializes in working with and allowing people the freedom to take an introspective look at themselves. The process of learning to actually love yourself can be kind of a long road, but Shafonne shares some tips on how to at least get STARTED, to move forward and improve in this area.

Stepping into loving myself was one of the biggest shifts in my business, and I can’t wait for you to hear this episode so that you can start moving towards this constantly changing goal.
