Summary

Now this podcast may seem a bit harsh - but as a writer I speak no lies and I wanted to get down to real biz here: SWOT analysis - write this out and know your strengths and weaknesses as well Create a Business Plan and get organized and specific HIRE way way smarter and more experienced than you Capital - do you have it? Do you need it? Where will your financial stability come from? CPA //LEGAL Also what kind of legacy do you want to leave? Are you experienced in the field you wan to move into? The world needs more healers, lovers and support systems - not necessarily products, billionaires or assholes. A great model: Dress for Success, Patagonia or the Insight Timer meditation app. Keep it real - as Ali G says and think smart about your business before you jump in head first. with love and thank you for listening - Candice

0:00.0	Hello, friends. Welcome to the Wabi-Sabi podcast. This is episode number 1116. We are back in New York and back in Brooklyn. We are virtually down the street from where we launched the podcast in 2018. So thank you so much for, number one, helping to make this podcast a reality for the last five years going on six.
0:25.8	And also thank you for just listening and being there asking the question, supporting the pod, downloading it.
0:32.9	We don't have anyone supporting this podcast.
0:36.2	It is a public service from myself to all of you. And it still is.
0:42.0	I feel like sometimes this is the best way for me to get my messaging across because I'm not
0:46.9	restricted by some bullshit or a network or a sponsor that makes me feel like I can't say
0:53.7	everything I really want to say.

0:59.5	I suppose it's been worth burning a hole in all 10 of my pockets.
1:04.8	But I want to be very real with all of you today because we often talk about business on this podcast and you will love

1:29.7	I launched my first business when I was in my very early 20s in 2007. So I've been in business
1:37.1	for over, well, I'll say almost two decades now. And that's a real thing. Another thing that I think I noticed it made a guy
1:46.6	that I was dating's jaw drop was that I've been independent and I've run my companies my whole life,
1:53.5	meaning I've never been on payroll and I've never had a full-time job with anyone else.
1:58.7	It means that I've been my own support system for my entire
2:03.3	career. So that is probably unique and different. For whatever reason, ladies, this note is for you.
2:12.2	You will not be taken as serious as the boys club. Unfortunately, that's how things work. There are certain people
2:19.1	in this world that are an anomaly and they come from nepotism and it looks like they're really
