How I Made $500K on Instagram with a Small Audience [Audio]

from The Confidence Chronicles

In 2018, my husband Hamish and I were broke. Some weeks we couldn’t afford the basics, let alone little luxuries. I even found myself scrounging around the backseat of my car, trying to get enough change to buy a loaf of bread. It was in the shower one afternoon when I had an epiphany – it was the ‘aha’ moment that led to me finally pursuing my dream of becoming a confidence coach. So I started with what I had … the fire and passion to show up and create the community and connections I desired.  Join me in this episode, as I share with you how we built our business on instagram and went from $0 to over $500k Yup, it’s TOTALLY possible.  Even if you know one knows who you are yet and you have a smaller audience. If you commit to SHOWING UP you can create more money and more impact too.
