Ask Me Anything: Business and Entrepreneurship With Kim Kaupe

My biggest regret when it comes to my career? Not asking for help sooner! I was embarrassed - everyone seemed to “get it” but me. The truth? We are all figuring it out as we go! We are ALL (hopefully!) still learning every day. In this episode we dove into all things business from bringing on investors and bootstrapping to how Coffee With Kim began and my thoughts on embracing cringe. I share how I incorporate learning into my life as an entrepreneur and how I outsource to free up time. I even got a bit spicy about my thoughts on AI lately and how to make sure mentors are right for you. This space is all about learning and growing together so if any questions come to mind while you’re listening shoot them over to [email protected] and I will be sure to set some time aside to answer them (yes, even if you think they’re silly)!  Notes:08:37 How and why this live show started 13:51 Investors vs bootstrapping 21:08 Unlearning mindsets that don’t help with growth 23:58 Dealing with terrible customers 28:30 Planning for learning 32:32 Rethinking mentors 34:30 How AI has impacted my business 38:30 What's on the other side of cringe 43:33 Outsourcing to make entrepreneurial life easier Links mentioned:My course on Bootstrapping - https://kimkaupe.com/bootstrapping-your-businessMy article on mentorship - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/4-mentors-you-need-right-now-kim-kaupe/My First Million Podcast - https://www.mfmpod.com/James Clear - https://jamesclear.com/booksSimon Sinek - https://simonsinek.com/books/If you loved this episode you should check out this episode Mini-Workshop: Tips For Delegating If you enjoyed today’s episode, please:1.)
