EP92: Unmasking the reality of being in business with Colleen Mullins

Today's guest is Colleen Mullins, owner of TinsleyTreasures, a balloon company. She is also a mama and wifey. Colleen loved her corporate job but something didn't feel right about putting all her handwork into building someone else's company, filling their pockets more than hers. She ventured out and started a side hustle that is now, 6 years later, a booming small business. In today's episode we talk about the BTS of being a business owner, the work ethic and mindset you must have as an entrepreneur, and how quitting is simply not an option. We talk about finances and being upfront with your prices when Colleen says "I want to be the best I don't want to be the cheapest". Charging what you worth is essential, creating prices that are accessible to everyone is not the goal. Just as you are not for everyone, neither is your business and that's okay. We talk about comparison in a professional sense. How easy it is to fall into comparison loop but most importantly, how to not stay stuck in that loop. We dive into the importance of creating instead of consuming social media. We really dive into many different topics in regards to business and entrepreneurship. The highs and the lows. Colleen also shares a tool with us that she utilized for her finances in her business.
