WEEK ONE LIVE Q&A Phone Call

Here is the recording for the first LIVE Q&A Phone Call on Friday, August 8, 2014. Unfortunately, for the first 10-15 minutes of this call I completely failed to start the recording. My apologies! I will type up what was asked and answered and post it here and in the Feisty Gal Forum ASAP.

At 4:20 someone asked, “How does your money story impact your business?”

At 10:15 someone asked, “Do you have any recommended readings around this subject?” As you will hear, I most certainly do, and I will provide those to you in written form very shortly…

At 19:33 someone asked, “Have you heard of the ‘Money Honey’?” I had not, but I think I’ve found her and will share in the Feisty Gal Forum for those who may be interested.

At 24:04 someone asked, “When does start-up mode end?”

At 35:40 someone asked, “At what point did you stop taking contract work and focus on your business?”
