In this episode, Jodi and Stacy discuss Jodi’s battle with anxiety and how she’s become a happy, successful business owner.

Some highlights include:

Jodi was a counselor saying the same thing to eight people a day. At minute 2:00, she talks about deciding to take her expertise and turning it into a business that could touch many more people than she already was.

“I don’t let things get me down.” At minute 7:00, Jodi talks about why an equal dose of optimism and realism are so important in being a business owner.

Don’t hire people who can’t do the job. At minute 9:00, Jodi talks about what she has learned about the hiring process and how she overcame always seeing the best in people. That’s a dangerous practice when it blinds you from seeing the negatives in potential employees.

You need to be able to transition from work to home. At minute 16:00, Jodi talks about work-life balance. She believes it exists, but it takes a lot of work.

Don’t clutter up your tools. At minute 20:00, Jodi talks about why she only uses a select few tools.
