Lessons Learned - My 11-Year Journey
“The expectations of what we feel like should happen – that is what does us in.” - Shinah
Yep, you read that title right.
If you thought the idea & success of Crooked Calligraphy just fell into my lap, you might wanna settle in for an eye-opening episode.
In October of 2013, depressed and burnt out, I flat out quit my 6-figure job as a corporate lawyer and went from a completely independent & successful career woman, to living in my best friend’s spare bedroom with NO direction in my life. It took me nearly 4 years of rest, resetting, and a whole lot of trial and error until I could even turn a decent profit and feel “successful”.
I rode the prosperous wave and threw myself all-in to Crooked Calligraphy –generating over $1 million in revenue – before I decided to blow my life up all over again.
Join me on this episode of The Shinah Show as I share my 11-year journey of highs & lows in the world of entrepreneurship, and the lessons I’ve learned along the way including:
The many phases of Crooked Calligraphy and how I derived confidence during each of them
The most strategic things I spent money on
Why your business should never determine your worth
What one thing studies are showing is the most important in peoples’ lives (and how I’ve started to incorporate it into my own)
Make sure you stick around until the end to hear what the current phase of my business is looking like– and what my husband building a 20’x30’ dance floor in my backyard has to do with it!
