40. Find YOUR Path to Growth: Agency vs. Education (Co-Interview on Rebrand with RuthAnn)

Welcome to the Real Talk episode you didn’t know you needed!    This week we're doing something different—a heart-to-heart co-interview with my dear friend and powerhouse designer, RuthAnn Rafiq! This episode originally aired on the Rebrand with RuthAnn Podcast and RuthAnn has been kind enough to allow us to share on Blaze as well.   In this unscripted convo, we dive into our biggest challenges of the past year, from losing clients to hiring (and firing!) to building businesses that feel GOOD and are stronger than ever. Both RuthAnn and I have gone from solopreneur to team leader and we’re spilling all the details on the highs, lows, and everything in between.   You’ll get to hear two very different strategies for growth and how we tailored our businesses to fit our lifestyles: RuthAnn as an agency owner and mama of 3, and me as a coach and full-time digital nomad.   If you’re craving an honest, girlfriend-chat-style episode on the constant evolution of life as an entrepreneur, this one’s for you!
