SPI 227: 15 Entrepreneurs Answer: “What I Wish I’d Known Before Starting My Own Business”

In this week’s episode, I’m trying something a little different. Instead of hearing from just one guest today, you’ll hear from 15.

I asked my favorite fellow entrepreneurs, “What do you wish you’d known before starting your own business?” Today, you’ll hear answers from incredible folks, including:

Every one of them offers an honest, personal glimpse at their mistakes and how they’ve grown since their early days.

Your first years as an entrepreneur are rarely easy. I hope these words of wisdom show you that struggle is a natural part of the journey and inspire you to stick with it and stay true to what you value. Tune in and enjoy!

Thanks for Listening!
