Scaling to $500K While Also Feeling Like an Imposter with Meghan Lamle
Sales expert Meghan Lamle invested her last $200 into starting her business and turned it into $200K in sales before she burned it all down after she grew quickly and burnt out. She took a break from business, worked on her mental health and is back 4 years after that initial $200 investment scaling once again.
Meghan talks about how imposter syndrome is always lurking, no matter how much revenue you bring in. She works on her mental health with therapy, hypnotherapy, mindset and breath work and nervous system regulation in order to squash her feelings of perfectionism. She learned to believe in herself and has been on a journey of unraveling her imposter syndrome while rebuilding her business to even bigger revenue successes.
Inside the episode we talk about:
How that first investment is the scariest
How trying to figure it out by yourself doesn’t work
How monumental growth also can create massive burnout
How she closed her coaching business and went back to corporate
How she rebuilt her coaching business while battling imposter syndrome, and massively increased her revenue despite feeling like an imposter
How revenue does not fix imposter syndrome
How imposter syndrome will make you keep investing in skills you already have
The benefits of hypnotherapy and investing in your mental health

Let’s Get Uncomfortable
Getting uncomfortable isn’t fun! It’s not easy and it can hurt sometimes, but getting uncomfortable also pushes us to our next level. It’s important to move outside of your comfort zone because it allows you to learn, grow and expand.
On this solo episode, I talk about the things that made me uncomfortable and how if I hadn’t done them, and continued to do them, I wouldn’t have businesses or a podcast today!
Inside the episode I talk about:
The importance of getting uncomfortable in order to move to your next level
My hate of running and why I’m running
How speaking live and hosting presentations once made me very uncomfortable, but I continued to do them and succeed in them
How when you work on one aspect of your life, it trickles into all aspects of your life and business

Finding a Female Community in a Male-Dominated Industry with Kim Fischer
SEO Expert and Agency Owner Kim Fischer went from finishing Grad School to bartending to entrepreneurship. She had been living abroad in the UK when the pandemic hit, and decided it was time to return home and start her SEM Agency 13 Emeralds Marketing. She was a woman in tech, and wanted to build a female-first agency that was for women and built by women.
Kim talks about how she wants female entrepreneurs to feel comfortable asking tech questions because when she was first starting her business she turned to Facebook groups for advice and the predominantly male tech groups made her feel less than for not having all the answers. She ended up seeking out a more female-driven community and found the support she needed to build her business into a success.
Inside the episode we talk about:
Starting a business in a pandemic
Being a female in a male-dominated industry
Finding a supportive community
The weird things people search on google
What type of content to have on your website to boost your SEO
