Find Your Magic8. What, like it's hard? How to start, build & protect your business legally with lawyer Nicole SwartzThis episode is basically the 'Find Your Magic' version of "Legally Blonde"; it involves feminism, believing in yourself after failure, glitter pens, understanding your personal brand, and setting yourself up for success in the workforce. Plus the musical improv "gives it a little something extra, don't you think?"
Come for the laughs, stay for the legal advice! If you're anything like me, you hear the word "legal" and your eyes glaze over. It can be scary and intimidating to get set up with everything you need to legally start and run a business (not just a hobby).
