When Lindsey Kirk’s husband came home and told her how much he was struggling at his swing shift factory job, it was clear they were at a crossroads.

 

She knew that in spite of her feeling of panic, it was time to take her jewelry business to the next level.

 

After 5 years of running a studio space to sell her pieces in Quincy, Illinois — while working a part-time job to make it work — Lindsey decided it was time to close the store and double down on her website (lucky for her, because the pandemic hit just a few weeks later). 

 

Lindsey had been a fan of Thrive by Design since the podcast launched back in 2015, and when she and her husband decided he would go back to school, she came looking for support in playing full-out to build her online sales.  

 

She enrolled in Laying the Foundation, and I am so excited to share her story with you today. Lindsey is a bad-ass implementer and has some amazing insights to share about how her business has grown to the point that she’s been able to support her husband while he’s back studying full-time. 

 

In this episode, you’ll hear:

 

The crazy numbers that Lindsey started seeing in her business as soon as she started working through the LTF material…

 

The 3 key concepts from LTF that changed everything for Lindsey’s business (and the mindset shift that has helped her increase her business over 50% in the past year)...

 

The amazing social media campaign that helped Lindsey hit a key goal in her business and how sharing her love of dogs has bonded her community to her even more…

 

We also talk about why the structure of Laying the Foundation was so effective for her, changing the narrative of your inner voice, and how her business turned out to be the lifeboat she and her husband needed (instead of taking a backseat to his work).
