Lindsey Schwartz: If You're an Entrepreneur This Will Change the Way You See Yourself
Manage episode 466352963 series 3593148
I know what it’s like to hold back. To feel like you have more inside you but let fear, self-doubt, and perfectionism keep you playing small. In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Lindsey Schwartz, founder of Powerhouse Women, a thriving community for female entrepreneurs. Lindsey’s journey from selling commercial flooring (yes, really) to building a movement that empowers women to break through their limits is nothing short of inspiring.
We dive deep into:
- The fear of being seen and how Lindsey pushed through it when launching her first book (spoiler: there was a typo on the cover)
- Why uncertainty is the greatest test of your potential and how to reframe discomfort as your biggest growth opportunity
- How perfectionism is killing your dreams (and what to do instead)
- The mindset shift that separates those who succeed from those who stay stuck
Lindsey shares her raw, unfiltered journey and reminds us that the only thing standing between us and our next level is our willingness to take the leap imperfectly.
Hit play if you’re ready to get out of your own way and step into your power.
