Summary

Using collaboration and competition to push yourself and your business to new heights. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "collaboration over competition" a million times. But, my friend, I'm here to tell you that it's not always true. As business owners, it's so important to use collaboration AND competition to thrive – let me explain! Competition keeps us motivated and driven, and I truly believe that the most useful competition is actually with ourselves. For me, it's all about setting and achieving my goals and constantly pushing myself to be the best entrepreneur I can be. At the same time, collaboration is also key! Sharing ideas and strategies with like-minded people in my network is incredibly valuable. For example, I love connecting with other course creators to share insights and tips on creating and launching the best courses. In this episode, you’ll hear about: 4:13: Why I stick to self-competition 7:55: How to be intentional with industry analysis 12:18: Questions to ask when reflecting on your motivations 13:54: Healthy vs. unhealthy collaboration 18:49: Examples of viewing competition through the lens of collaboration You all know it’s my mission to help as many entrepreneurs as possible, so listen in to hear why leveraging collaboration AND competition is essential in fueling that goal!
