Summary: The expectation to go to College/University right after high school is an evolutionary pressure that we all experience. In this week's episode our guest, Lauren Tickner, is a living example of how going to school and getting a degree is not the only way to build a successful business. At the age of 22, Lauren has achieved more than others achieve in their entire lifetime. She has been able to build her own empire because of her burning desire to get live her life in the pursuit of freedom! A few takeaways from this episode are... - How to create a desirable brand online so you can stand out from the crowd online - Learn the skill of persuasion to get what you want in life - Start positioning yourself as an expert in your field so no one ever doubts you based on your age or "experience" - Avoid making the mistakes coaches make so you can sell out your coaching (instead of being a sellout) Remember, following the footsteps of those who are average, will only end to the same destination. Whether you are just starting or you have been running your coaching business for a while, this episode will help you separate yourself from the pack and go after the freedom you have always dreamt of!
