I know that so many of us have these amazing ideas and desires to create something really successful but we’re teething on the edge of really going for it.
So often we have great ideas, but it feels so overwhelming to actually create anything!
We go from feeling inspired to talking ourselves out of it and making up all sorts of reasons for why it wouldn’t have worked out anyway.
Over the years there have been so many times where I’ve had amazing ideas but the fear of doing anything about it was just too big, so I just did nothing.
If you’ve ever struggled with feeling stuck like this, this episode is for you!
In this episode I’m sharing with you:
- Why the ideas you have are exactly right for you.
- How my friend Kate started a successful business from home using her creativity and Instagram to grow and make thousands of sales.
- How Michelle’s multiple 6-figure business started with a simple printable on Etsy.
- How to come up with amazing ideas you can create and sell and the steps to make them happen.
- The struggle and overwhelm I had to get over to create the Female Entrepreneur Association after I had the idea.
I hope you love this episode and that it inspires you and gets you fired up to start working on bringing an idea to life today!

| 0:00.0 | It's crazy how we can get in our own way to such a big extent that we literally just let our dreams just die inside of us. |
| 0:08.1 | We don't ever bring them to life because we just don't have the guts and the courage to get out of our own way and do it and figure it out. |
| 0:14.6 | You are listening to The She Means Business Show with me, Carrie Green. |
| 0:18.6 | I'm the founder of the Female Entrepreneur Association and |
| 0:21.5 | the author of the bestselling book, She Means Business. And every single week, I will be talking |
| 0:26.3 | with you about how you can turn your ideas into a wildly successful business and actually |
| 0:31.2 | live the life of your dreams. You can do this and I'm here to show you how. So let's get started. |
| 0:47.3 | Hello, it's Carrie here and I want to share with you some stories in this episode. |
| 0:53.4 | Stories to inspire you and to show you what's |
| 0:55.6 | possible, because I know that so many of us have these amazing ideas and desires to want to |
| 1:02.2 | create something really successful, but we're teetering on the edge of it. And maybe that's you. |
| 1:07.5 | Maybe you've been teetering on the edge of really going for it with an idea that |
| 1:11.5 | you have. It could be an idea to create a digital product like a principal. It could be an |
| 1:17.9 | idea to create a course. It could be an idea to set up a service. It could be an idea to create a |
| 1:23.8 | product or to create a membership. But so often we have these ideas, but then we get |
| 1:31.1 | so overwhelmed by the idea of actually physically creating the thing that we start to feel like |
| 1:38.3 | it's actually impossible. And we go from having this inspired idea to feeling, oh, well, it was a silly idea. I was never |
| 1:46.5 | going to be able to make it work. I don't have the time, all the money anyway, and no one would |
| 1:50.6 | buy from me anyway, so I don't know anything, so there's just no point, and we just talk |
| 1:55.2 | ourselves out of it. And I don't know about you, but I know I've done this to myself so many |
| 2:00.1 | times. Over the years, I've had so many ideas to about you, but I know I've done this to myself so many times. |
| 2:06.4 | Over the years, I've had so many ideas to do things, but sometimes the fear of actually doing it is so great that it's easier to just do nothing. |
