Nuggets of Wisdom from Season Seven ✨
1. Mindset Matters
Keeping a growth-oriented outlook helps you turn challenges into opportunities and failures into stepping stones. Maryann emphasizes, “Mindset matters,” pointing out that a growth-focused perspective can change everything. In Episode 157, life and business strategist Niccie Kliegl shares,
“You can have as much peace as you give yourself,” reminding us that growth often starts from within."
2. Plan for Success
A detailed business plan acts as your roadmap to success. This plan should cover your mission, vision, market insights, and financial projections. Understanding your audience’s needs is crucial for delivering value. Maryann reminds us,
“You can’t just get in a car and start driving!”
3. Build Your Network
A strong support network is key for mentorship, community, and opportunities. Leverage social media to connect with industry leaders. Authentic connections attract the right people to support your journey. Maryann advises,
“Your mentors don’t have to be people you know personally.”
4. Cultivate Confidence
Confidence is like a muscle—the more you work on it, the stronger it becomes! Maryann’s talk with Shana Gourdine highlights the importance of self-love and authenticity.
“If I can show up, smiling and living my best life, I hope it gives others the courage to build their own table,”
5. Financial Savvy
Budgeting and financial literacy are essentials every entrepreneur should master. Maryann advises separating personal and business finances to avoid pitfalls. Going above and beyond for customers helps build trust, fosters loyalty, and sets your business apart.
“Exceptional customer service can be your biggest differentiator,”
6. Embrace Failure
Every challenge is an opportunity to learn. Maryann reminds us that resilience is crucial—every setback teaches us something new. As Niccie Kliegl puts it,
“Failures are lessons in disguise.”
