🎉 5 Things I’ve Learned in 5 Years of Business | Your Marketing Mentor Podcast (Ep 25)
It’s my 5-YEAR business anniversary!! 🥳 And we’re celebrating it on the 25th episode of the Your Marketing Mentor Podcast! (How’s that for a full-circle moment?!)
After half a decade of coaching mission-driven entrepreneurs, launching offers that worked (and a few that flopped), navigating tech meltdowns, and figuring out how to market with heart — I’m sharing the 5 biggest lessons I’ve learned so YOU can grow faster, feel less overwhelmed, and show up like the CEO you were born to be.
If you’re building a business that aligns with your values and vision — this episode is for YOU. 💕

-The #1 reason your marketing may not be working (hint: it’s not your logo)
-How to stay consistent without burning out
-Why you can’t (and shouldn’t) do this alone
-The ROI rule I use before spending a single dollar
-What to do instead of waiting for everything to be “perfect”
