Could you imagine starting your day tending to patients, then prepping to run your brick-and-mortar business, and on top of that, starting a nursing school? In this episode, our host Denise Cagan sits down with the incredibly driven Allison Lee, an entrepreneur who is living this reality every day.
Allison shares her powerful journey as a first-generation immigrant from Laos, and how the challenges of her family starting over in a new country shaped her entrepreneurial spirit. A nurse of 27 years, Allison discusses what prompted her to leap into the world of business, driven by a desire to help people in a new way.
You’ll get a real-world look at the financial rollercoaster of a new brick-and-mortar, where sales can go from zero to thousands in 24 hours. Allison shares her playbook on navigating a family business partnership, including when to push and when to step back and let your partner learn from failure. Plus, discover the single most important principle she uses to build customer loyalty that has nothing to do with marketing and everything to do with connection.
If you're looking for a dose of motivation and practical advice on building a business with true purpose, you don't want to miss this.
