Ever felt like school left out the most important stuff about starting your career? In this episode, the hosts get real about the gaps between certifications and running a business. They share the struggles of figuring things out on their own, from setting up LLCs to learning how to hire and create systems, with no handbook in sight.
Umo and Bri talk about the power of mentorship, leaning on community, and using free resources when funds are tight. They also offer personal stories about making mistakes, learning from chaos, and staying consistent even when things get tough. If you're in the early stages of building your business or feeling overwhelmed, this episode will leave you feeling seen and supported.
