881. Listener Q&A: How To Prepare For The Unknown, Bring Your Vision To Life And Expand Into Bigger Networks

We’re answering listener questions today about how to prepare for the unknown, what it’s like to go from concept to launch, and simple ways to get noticed by the people that inspire you. I explain how I do my ‘if this, then that’ exercise to be more solution-oriented and take action instead of sitting in the surprise. Lauren and I discuss what goes into a pitch deck, when we think it’s better to bootstrap vs. raise startup money, and how to make strategic hires that can help bring your vision to life and protect your energy. We also share how we’ve gotten into the rooms that stretch and inspire us, and our tips for how to expand into bigger networks.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: How we’ve learned to expect the unexpected  Being grateful for challenges  Reflecting on how you handle rejection  What a ‘minimum run’ is and how to figure that number out  How to connect with leaders who are in the industry that you want to be in    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!
