Entrepreneurship often overlooks the critical role of mindset—yet it’s a game-changer. In this episode, we tackle the often-untouched subject of mindset in entrepreneurship with the incredible B. Perlowin, a life and leadership coach who transformed from a "reluctant entrepreneur" into a powerhouse.
We explore the unique obstacles women face in the entrepreneurial world, from battling imposter syndrome to navigating the discomfort of sales and marketing. B. shares her insights on the importance of recognizing and leveraging your unique strengths rather than conforming to traditional expectations of what an entrepreneur should be.
B. introduces the idea of using the right "ruler" to measure your success, encouraging entrepreneurs to focus on their individual values and strengths instead of constantly comparing themselves to others. She emphasizes the power of community support and regular self-reflection to maintain motivation and direction.
We also discuss practical strategies for aspiring and current entrepreneurs, including the importance of allowing others to say "no" instead of preemptively rejecting yourself, questioning your thoughts, and building a mission-driven business.
Our guest, ICF-accredited coach Britney Perlowin, or simply B., brings a diverse background that shapes her empathetic approach to guiding clients through life transitions. As a pandemic mom, PPD survivor, and partner to an entrepreneur, B. helps clients embrace change by leveraging their strengths. Beyond coaching, she’s a mother of two with a passion for art, pop culture, and advocacy for marginalized communities. B.’s commitment to personal growth and inclusivity makes her an ideal coach for navigating life’s challenges.
Join us as we explore how to develop a growth-oriented mindset, overcome self-limiting beliefs, and build a mission-driven business with B.’s invaluable insights.
