OVERVIEW: Jason A. Duprat, MBA, CRNA, Healthcare Practitioner, and Host of the Healthcare Boss Academy podcast talks about how – and if – you should start a business when you have student loan debt.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: In the US, student debt totals 1.6 trillion dollars. The average student graduates with just under 38k in student loans. And 15% of the US population currently has student loan debt. Jason shares five tips for those struggling with student loans yet still want to launch their business. First, choose your institution wisely. As a student, think about the return on your investment! Don't just pick the most expensive school. The odds of getting your money back, especially in the healthcare field, is relatively low.  Second, make sure you're paying the least amount of interest as possible after you graduate. Consider loan consolidation. Also, there are governmental loan forgiveness programs. They often have a strict contract so make sure you can commit to avoid penalties. Next, reduce the amount you owe. Jason joined the Navy Reserves and reduced his loans by 30k. This has its pros and cons, which you should consider when looking for new opportunities to repay your debt. Fourth, spend wisely and live lean. Self-discipline and self-control is a must to avoid ballooning student loans. Live well below your means and don't make expensive purchases like a new car or home.  Fifth, figure out a way to earn more. Work overtime and apply extra payments directly to your principal vs interest. Pick up a PRN job, which offers great flexibility and pays 25-50% higher than normal salaries.  Start lean and if possible start with a partner who can share expenses with you. Humble yourself. Start small and also consider online options, which have little to no startup costs, such as courses and books.  Once launched, and if possible, consider reinvesting your earnings vs paying off your student debt. This might allow you to move to a second business more quickly with a higher growth model.    TWEETABLE QUOTES: “Choose your degree wisely, choose your school wisely, and choose it based on your return on investment.” – Jason Duprat   “The key is to get started…start up lean, reinvest your earnings and keep pushing forward.”  – Jason Duprat   CONNECT WITH JASON DUPRAT: LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | Youtube | Facebook Group   RESOURCES: Sign up for one of our free business start-up Masterclasses by heading over to https://healthcareboss.org/masterclass/ Have a healthcare business question?

When baby number 2 came along, and it was time to go back to work, civil servant Sophie Howard realised that the numbers just didn't stack up. She looked at what her salary would be versus what she would have to pay in childcare costs, commuting to work and all the rest that goes with having a job in a government agency.  And she knew there had to be another way of making a living. With a lot of research, tons of determination and possibly a touch of beginners luck, Sophie was able to build … and then sell … an e-commerce business for over a million dollars USD. But by then, she'd caught the entrepreneurial bug and realised she enjoyed the process of buying existing online businesses and making them more profitable.  Several 6 and 7-figure businesses later, she is now sharing what she's learned with her Freedom Navigator students. In this episode, Sophie shares some of her experiences along the way to owning a portfolio of online businesses.  As well as a lot of wisdom about this particular business model and how it works. So if you're interested in building versus buying an online business as a way to get started on your journey to entrepreneurial success, have a listen.

Dylan Clark is the Owner of Whiplash Queen, where she services clients and teaches others how to be lash artists. Ever since she was a little girl, Dylan loved all things beauty, but instead of pursuing this full-time, she decided to play it safe and work towards a degree. After getting lash extension training, Dylan dropped out of college and enrolled in aesthetics school.   Dylan strongly believes in lifting other women up, and that's why she began lashing clients full-time and teaching courses. Dylan has a strong support system through her husband, Hayden, and she wants nothing more than to be a cheerleader for other entrepreneurs and aspiring beauticians. In this episode… Dylan Clark always knew that she wanted to run her own business. However, her entrepreneurial journey had a rough start. While working in an unpleasant fast-food job in college, Dylan realized she needed to pivot and do what she loves — lashing. In order to create a name for herself, Dylan worked multiple jobs, practiced lashing on her college roommates, and saved up to invest in her business. How did she push through these challenges, and what's her advice for other aspiring entrepreneurs? Dylan was driven by her lifelong dreams of owning a salon, a passion for teaching, and her goal to help women feel empowered and confident. After going through multiple obstacles, Dylan persisted and shaped a successful business that now teaches other lash artists. Her biggest piece of advice? Just start! Often, taking the leap is the hardest part, but Dylan says you don't need to have everything figured out — when you commit to your dream, it eventually pays off. In this episode of the Multiply You Podcast, Austin Clark talks with Dylan Clark, Owner of Whiplash Queen, about her entrepreneurial journey. Dylan shares the horror stories of her business' beginning, how she overcame societal pressures to pursue her dream, the opportunities within social media, and tips for others wanting to start their own business. Stay tuned!

“I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.” If you're a professional woman who's been mulling over entrepreneurship, but haven't done any more than that, this quote from Lucille Ball should serve as a foretelling.For professional women, there are plenty of great reasons to start a side business such as creating multiple streams of income, building something for yourself, and setting your own hours. In this episode Lori Vajda and Nola Boea share the five questions (plus bonus questions) to ask yourself before pursuing the entrepreneurial journey.  Thanks for Listening!Ready to start your business or grow your personal brand?

Older women in particular face more discrimination during these life change events than their your counterparts. As Nola and Lori point out, understanding your intrinsic motivation for starting a side business can help you establish a solid foundation for launching a successful entrepreneurial journey. (2:56.25) Building a side business with limited hours to dedicate to it outside of your day job is never easy. Question number one is all about evaluating how passionate you are toward the idea of starting a business.  (6:37.72) This question isn't so much about delayed gratification as much as it's about whether or not you're in it for the long game.(9:31.23) It takes time for a business to grow, which is why question number three is so important. Are you willing to put in the time to create a sticky brand? (12:36:44) You definitely can't create a successful side business venture without support, and we're not talking about the financial kind with question number four.(15:02:69) There's good reason why you don't want to be first to market and question number five explores this in more detail. (17:57:60) Bonus question number one focuses on the one thing no talks about, and that is all about getting out of your comfort zone. (22:22:78) Bonus, bonus question, would you be willing to let us follow your entrepreneurial journey? Resources You can subscribe to Lori and Nola's show, (we love you and want to make it easy) on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.This episode was supported by: Be-YOU-niquePodcast Transcript

Well, today we live in a world where many feel entitled to success without having to do much of anything. I see far too many people that “feel” they deserve to run a company, have a business, and enjoy the trappings of this “entrepreneur” lifestyle but don't want to do the hard work it takes. Being successful often means learning from those who have already achieved their goals. Having a mentor is an amazing blessing to an entrepreneur, but not everyone can find one in person. If you haven't yet found your personal business guru, here are some tips for young or aspiring entrepreneurs to help get you started. 1- Challenge Yourself 2- Do work you care about 3- Take the risk 4- Believe in Yourself 5- Have a vision 6- Find good Team 7- Face your fears

The term 'aspiring entrepreneur' seems to be used to refer to anyone who wants to be an entrepreneur.  But the origins of the two words would imply a different meaning.  Is the aspiring entrepreneur forever aspiring, fulfilling the 'aspirational' part of the term without any action?  Or is the aspiring entrepreneur who uses both terms implying motivation, perseverance and ambition by insisting on the use of the words together?  And what do you do if you're the former?If you believe you do too much aspiring:Work on researching your business idea and your potential communityTalk to those who have gone before you, and if you do not know successful people watch the videos, read the books and listen to the podcasts of those you would like to knowDefine where you can add value to a specific niche - by being the niche within the nicheTake action.  Implement the information you have learned.The aspiring and entrepreneur work best together when you take your vision past aspiration and on to implementation.

We are naturally curious about how people get rich.  And if you're an aspiring entrepreneur, you likely want to emulate the path of the most successful entrepreneurs which includes getting rich too.  But how did successful entrepreneurs achieve wealth?  In this episode, Case discusses the steps for achieving wealth that she has learned from reading the biographies and autobiographies of successful entrepreneurs.  The key ingredient has defined progress for centuries, and is accessible to anyone who has the courage and perseverance to pursue the entrepreneurial dream.

An aspiring entrepreneur must have the energy and enthusiasm to pursue their business idea every day.  But how do you start each day ready to go?  In this episode, Case provides strategies for waking up each day ready to be the entrepreneur who brings your product or service idea to the global marketplace.  Entrepreneurs need to be focused on their business, and excited to move forward.  But entrepreneurship is also difficult, isolating and requires a lot of work.  You have to be self-motivated and a self-starter.  This episode will help you learn how to make yourself ready.

Many aspiring entrepreneurs claim they do not have the money to start a business, yet few know how much money they will need.  As many people have spent their lives not talking about money, the same restraint rolls over to their business, and leaves them struggling from day one.  The Thing About Money for entrepreneurs is to talk about it for what it is, a thing of value you use to build the business.  But not an obstacle to getting the business done.  In this episode, Case talks about money, and how entrepreneurs should move forward with their business idea, and go as far as possible using the resources that are available.  There is no need to 'stop before you start' because of a lack of money.  This episode will help aspiring entrepreneurs understand that you can get started on your business without worrying about money. 

Today we're sitting down with Joshua Seitz. Josh is an aspiring entrepreneur and software developer based in Austin, Texas. He also plans to become hippie and travel the country in a van. Five most valuable things I walked away with: Don't go down without a fight. Ditch the victim mentality. Respectfully question everything. Follow your vision & believe in it. Get rid of the noise.

What is the approach aspiring entrepreneurs can use to learn about business outside of business school or any other type of formal education?  In this episode, learn tips and strategies for giving yourself an 'offline' non-formal business education.  You can utilize resources from publicly available books to open meetings to one-on-one interviews, but you have to know how to approach sources, and how to organize the information that you gather.  Learn strategies that you can use and implement today to launch your offline entrepreneurial education.

Are you worried that the loud, aggressive, extroverted entrepreneurs you have seen are the correct personality type for the business world?  And you, who may be shy, introverted, methodical, and detailed-oriented, do not have what it takes to make it in the entrepreneurial world?  This episode focuses on the real skill for an entrepreneur - the ability to do the work - and explains why having the 'rah, rah' personality is not the defining characteristic you need to run your own business.  A person with a business idea who is willing and able to bring that idea to the consumer marketplace, and deliver value will have an opportunity to make the business viable.  But you have to get started and take action.
