Having fear is a natural part of running a business. The key is to not let those fears stop you from doing the work that you were created to do. But what do you do when those fears threaten to throw you off your game or derail you completely? You take action and keep moving forward, but sometimes you need a little inspiration to keep you going.   In this episode, my friend Marie Forleo (entrepreneur extraordinaire) and I are going to share the seven biggest fears that we have personally struggled with and overcome. Our intention is to pull back the curtain to show that some of the very things you may be experiencing now may be obstacles, but they are not insurmountable. This is my 10th year of running an online business and Marie is in her 20th year! We’ve seen it all and experienced ALL the fears (and still do!), so come along and let’s see if we can provide some helpful insight for you and your business!      To give you an extra dose of inspiration, I asked Marie to also share stories of her B-School students and how they, too, faced similar fears and what they did to work through them to build thriving, profitable and successful online businesses. You’re going to learn so many valuable tips and tricks that will help you navigate through similar fears when they come up in your own business.    Here’s a rundown of the 7 fears we discuss in the episode: I don’t have an email list. How in the world can I start a business without one? I don’t have enough skills to make an online business work. It’s all been done before. My market is saturated with people doing what I want to do. I’m too old to be starting a business online. I want to do something different than I’ve been doing for the last 5, 10 or 20 years, but I’m not sure how to start over. I can’t figure out all the tech that’s needed to get my business up and running. I am overwhelmed...it’s just too much. We’ll also talk about Marie’s free online business building workshop that she just released in which she’ll teach you The 6 Pillars of Building an Online Business. Marie has a tremendous gift for breaking things down to simple and understandable next steps, so you do not want to miss being in this free workshop.   The first video in the workshop series goes live today and you are going to get so much value.
