Show Notes: YourResultsRadio.com/22 “You have the ability to reinvent yourself every single day.” Many people hesitate when it comes to starting their own business and becoming an entrepreneur. They often times let their worries get in the way, or listen to other people tell them why they shouldn’t do it. Being an entrepreneur isn’t for everyone, and it may not even be for you. If it’s something you are thinking about, though, it probably is for you. The key to being successful is having a plan and knowing when the time is right. To answer the latter first, it’s all about intuition. You will know when the time is right, you’ll have that feeling and that desire. It’ll be hard to sit at a desk in a typical J.O.B. You’ll feel ancy, have a hard time listening to people tell you what to do when you know deep down inside what’s really best. You’ll feel the need to be heard and appreciated. When that happens it’s time to take action. Be prepared to work harder than you ever have before. Build yourself a support network, and get rid of the people who are nay-sayers. Most importantly, follow your passion and know exactly why you are doing this. That’s what’s going to keep you driving forward. On this episode of Results Radio we are joined by a truly inspirational and powerful woman, Monica Kretschmer. Monica is the Founder and CEO of Canadian Business Chicks, Women of Inspiration and The Nest Foundation. Born and raised in Calgary, she is an entrepreneur at heart with a passion for building authentic and relevant connections. Monica believes in empowering women and her mission is to help women thrive in business and in their personal lives. Since launching Canadian Business Chicks, Monica has broken traditional barriers and silos by embracing collaboration and diversity. In three short years, Monica has built a recognizable brand across Canada and spearheaded partnerships with government agencies, non-profits, venture capitalists and women’s organizations. Monica is an inspirational speaker, visionary, philanthropist, Alberta Flood Hero, 2017 Women Build Ambassador, Nest Creator, Master Connector and Disruptor with an abundance of energy and passion for making a difference in the lives of others. Monica has been featured on CTV, in the Metro, Calgary Herald, StandOUT Magazine and in the book The Rising by Taylor Lambert.

Download this episode today to learn how you can step into an entrepreneurial role with confidence and be prepared for the success you want. “If I don’t put 1,000% into what I’m doing I won’t see results.” Highlights Take an inventory of what support you have. Ask yourself, “What are you willing to risk?” Be prepared to work harder than you ever have before for the next two years. Intuitively you will know when you are ready. You need to have fearlessness, tenacity, vision, passion, commitment and a why. To be an entrepreneur you need to have thick skin. Know that every step forward is the right step. Marketing is key. You always need to continually plant seeds. Go out and have a sticky party. Know who you are, where you want to go, and keep it visible. “To be liked by everybody is impossible.” References Get Your Copy of the Results Journal CanadianBusinesChicks.com Show Notes: YourResultsRadio.com/22
