Ideas for business can spring from any aspect of your life - a childhood passion, market demand, or identifying a better way to connect creatives and clients. When starting a business, we face different challenges from developing the vision or goal of your company, raising your capital or budget, dealing with competition, and many more. As entrepreneurs, our job is to nurture our ideas as we navigate the challenges, barriers, and self-doubts that may arise. We must believe that our ideas are valuable, needed, and will produce a ripple effect on the world.
In our episode today, Ashley M. Williams will share her journey in building her business, the struggles she faced and how she overcame them, and how her parents encouraged and pushed her to continue to pursue her business.
