Episode 9 - Progress Over Perfection

Our guest today is Tina Steffen, Founder and Chief Mess Maker at Unleashed Creative Studio, which Tina created to help people discover or re-discover their creativity in a stress-free, judgment-free, and drama-free environment, one messy project at a time. In this episode, we explore the backstory of Unleashed Creative Studio, the value of working with a business coach, but most importantly, we discuss imposter syndrome and how to push through it as an entrepreneur. Tina is an Air Force Veteran and spouse, mom to an almost 18-year-old human, and dog mom to Bo, a 6-year-old Carolina Dog mix, and Everest, a 3-year-old Husky mix. She is taking advantage of the free business counseling offered through the SBA-Funded COmmunity Navigator Pilot Program. CNPP is offered in partnership with Syracuse University's Institute for Veteran and Military Families.
