In this episode, Melanie Fountain and I dive deep into the pros and cons of owning your own business. Join us as we debunk the often rosy picture painted by social media and reveal the true realities of being your own boss. Melanie shares her inspiring journey of leaving a minimum wage job to start her own business, driven by a strong 'why'—to spend more time with her daughter. We discuss the significance of relationships, community support (like the Boss Mom platform), and the essential structures needed to sustain a business. Learn how social media can be both a boon and a bane, and discover strategies to stay focused and intentional. Melanie's heartfelt story of balancing single motherhood with entrepreneurship will resonate with anyone looking to take a leap of faith and bet on themselves. Don't miss this insightful conversation packed with real-life lessons and actionable advice for aspiring entrepreneurs.
