Ageism


What impact does age have for small business owners and women in business?

Can you use your age as an advantage?

Should you keep your age a secret?

“I think you need to be prepared to leave situations and let go of clients who don't respect your age, your processes and your way of doing things.”

- Rachel Kurzyp


Topics discussed in this episode:

  • What is the difference between age, experience and wisdom?
  • How relevant is age?
  • Do you need to have 10 years of experience before you are entitled to start a business? What about a family? Living overseas?
  • How do you deal when someone asks, “how old are you?”
  • Should you make yourself seem older? Or broadcast your age on your business platforms?
  • Can you use your age to your advantage?

“I did have some concerns about people looking at that photo and saying ‘oh a young female she can’t know anything so I won’t work with her’ but that hasn’t been my experience because my ideal client isn't a d!ck. ”

- Sophia Colquhoun
