Genius, right??
My podcast guest Julie Cole (remember her from awesome Mabel’s Labels?) recommended that I talk with Cassie as she is making waves in Canada. With each turn she is winning award after award for her ingenious product. Now she is giving back her (very little) extra time to help up and coming entrepreneurs.
Today’s conversation you will learn about how she created the product, how and when she has shifted gears, how she pushes herself and who pushes her. I really love both answers there. How and who she works with. Then how she utilizes a great cross between partnerships, mentors and accountability partners to achieve her successes and also giving back.
We talked about many things including:
- Igniting & Start-up Mompreneurs
- How it's good to see other mompreneurs come together
- When going back to work and your heart changes
- Being open to shifting your business idea
- Who pushed her beyond limits
- Entertaining kids
- How being an entrepreneur can be lonely sometimes
- Developing partnerships and how it opened up other doors
- Their first big WIN
- Good old fashioned hard work - giving back & hard work
- How much & how little sleep
- Her upbringing and what her family taught her
- How do you push yourself?
- How her lists push her
- How she manages the day and how it's changed over time
- Where and when she turns off AND HOW
- Where has she changed her mind
- How her systems allow her to get things done
- Her mentors & accountability friends
- What's for dinner tonight?!
