Business Unfiltered with Laura Amigone

My client Laura started her business coaching college students in 2020 - and we’ve worked together almost the whole time! 

On today’s episode of the Simple Online Business Podcast I have an unfiltered chat with Laura to show you about what it’s really like to grow a business. We talk about networking vs social media for marketing, balancing business and being a mom, tailoring your strategy to your business and goals and why having your own business if the best job out there. 

We covered a lot of ground, and I think every single business owner will find something they needed in this conversation. (Once you listen, I’d love to hear what it was for you!)

YOU’LL LEARN:

• How it’s ok and normal (and HELPFUL) to sometimes peek at other jobs out there when business feels hard
• How aligning personal values and business priorities lead to a more fulfilling and successful career
• Why your strategy has to be tailored to your business & goals (and what that really looks like)
• How to balance business growth with family life
