“I say to many of my clients, ‘Your good enough is better than most people’s best.’” (20:44)
“I would say it’s still a struggle. There’s still an uncertainty in my business. I do not have a guaranteed paycheck.” (32:44)
“I think the most important thing as a business owner to do is to keep letting people know that you’re in business.” (34:29)
