Mindset, The Most Overlooked Ingredient in Side Business Success

In this episode of The Bold Biz Podcast, Jenny dives into what she believes is the most overlooked ingredient in building a successful side business, mindset.

Not strategy.
Not tools.
Not AI.

But the thoughts, beliefs, and inner dialogue that quietly determine whether you keep going or give up.

Jenny opens up about her own mindset journey, from believing she was “just average” and meant for a safe, comfortable life, to realizing that her biggest limitations were never external, they were internal. She shares why motivation is unreliable, why wanting to quit doesn’t mean you’re failing, and how building a strong mindset is what allows everything else to work. 💭✨

This episode is an honest conversation about self doubt, fear, comfort, discipline, and why midlife can actually be the most powerful time to build something meaningful.

💡 In this episode, you’ll hear:
 • Why mindset matters more than strategy in the long run
 • How to recognize when your thoughts are holding you back
 • Why feeling uncomfortable doesn’t mean you’re on the wrong path
 • The difference between dabbling and committing
 • How belief is built through action, not confidence
 • Why women often underestimate their own capability
 • How to stop letting fear and comparison make your decisions

If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or unsure if you’re “cut out for this,” this episode will help you reframe what’s actually going on and remind you that you don’t need to have it all figured out to move forward.
