Wendy Hanson, co-author of The Sassy Ladies’ Toolkit for Startup Businesses, interviewed me for TheSassyLadies Blog Talk Radio show. The Sassy Ladies book is a great tool for someone who wants to start a business and it has a lot in common with Ask Others, Trust Yourself. For example, they also recommend that you don’t ignore the naysayers, but that you actually check in with yourself to see if the advice is valid. I also like the way they help you breakdown your vision for your business, into small steps you can start taking today.

Take a moment and ask yourself if you are showing up for your business. Are you showing up at all or are you hiding?
Recently, I encountered two experiences with people who weren’t sure they should show up for events, but when they did, they were happily surprised.
The first one sent me an email a couple of days prior to a woman’s business conference, saying that she wasn’t sure she was going to make it, since she didn’t see the value of going. I explained to her that it was a great opportunity to learn and I recommended that she showed up. She did and stayed through the end. When one of the organizers did a cash prize drawing, she won it!
The second one is a friend of mine, who wasn’t sure he was going to my birthday celebration a few weeks ago. He went and met a friend of mine who knows someone who needs his services.
I ask again, are you showing up? I can’t guarantee that if you do show up, something amazing will happen, but nothing will if you don’t. Take a look at our book tour page to find out where I’m showing up next. Hope to see you soon.
