Becoming a Mama Made CEO with Courtney Wolf

In today’s episode, Jeff begins a series of shows exploring people who have created businesses based on their skills. In this show, Jeff interviews Courtney Wolf.  Courtney and Jeff discuss: How she worked in the corporate world for 8 months and found that it was not for her. After having her first baby she decided that she wanted to be at home with her baby, so she became a Virtual Assistant. Eventually, she moved up to the top of the company. After suffering from burnout, she left her company and founded her own consulting firm. While it was not easy to leave she decided to make the jump. Today she coaches mom entrepreneurs to build successful businesses. Using her signature Foundations Framework (™) she takes a structured approach. Her 90 program is one on one with Courtney. The toughest thing about being an entrepreneur is having all the responsibility for every decision. Once she was able to build her confidence, it actually gave her more freedom.
