From learning what it takes to leap from corporate to full-time entrepreneurship, to collaborating and partners with biz besties, to building your social media following and standing out online by owning your Enneagram type, you’re going to get a behind the scenes look into how you can elevate your business on every level and leave this event feeling jazzed about your next steps.

You want to be a successful and confident business owner. In order to do that you need business direction and professional clarity. The problem is you don't have a clear business direction, which makes you feel overwhelmed, confused and stressed. Being an entrepreneur shouldn't be this way! I understand what it's like to feel overwhelmed and isolated as an entrepreneur which is why I created the What's your type event. I've been in the industry for over 15 years and I know what it's like to feel like you don't have what it takes to run a business. In a world that is throwing all the "tools" your way it can be exhausting to know where to start. I want to help give you bite sized pieces to get you on the right business path for you.
