Stop following business rules that don’t work for you

About this episode

Denise discusses the importance of personalized business advice and shares her own experiences with unconventional business ideas.

Today’s episode of Chill & Prosper is about something we’ve all experienced at some point. Bad business advice. Or at least… advice that didn’t work for us. Because here’s the truth: there isn’t really such a thing as universally bad advice. What works brilliantly for one person might be completely wrong for someone else. Your personality, your energy, your lifestyle and your season of life all matter. In this episode I share some of the strange and funny business ideas I tried early on (including an ebook for men about internet dating and a program called Raw Brides 😅).
