My name is Alyssa, and welcome to from basic to boss, the podcast where you can learn all the basic skills to master your business in order to become the boss you were meant to be.You want to run a business but you just can’t get it off the ground and going. Or maybe you want your existing business to work better but you but can’t figure out what the problem is. Maybe you’ve been running your side business for some time but it’s completely exhausting and you’re suffering from burn out.Without a solid foundation, running a business is hard. It can feel like you’re constantly putting out fires or throwing spaghetti against the wall hoping something will stick. I’m here to teach you basic business foundations and tips that will get you back to even keel and running a business that works.I work with entrepreneurs who have serviced based businesses and love connecting with people. Everyday people who want to make a difference in their community and dream of being their own boss. Massage therapists, nutritionists, doulas, physiotherapists, hairstylists, coaches, yoga instructors, reiki practitioners and more.This is the place where you can find down to earth unedited and unfiltered advice about running a business that work for you. I’ve been self-employed as a massage therapist for over eight years and in that time I’ve opened two massage therapy clinics, worked as a doula, and also a life coach all while grossing over six figures. I did this all before the age of 30. You can do it too.I got tired of podcasts that were way over people’s heads with terminology and language that didn’t apply to their small business. I got tired of coaching fads that promised people thousands of dollars without teaching them the basics of business. I got tired of podcasts that focused on multi millionaire success stories that were un relatable to your every day small business owner. So I decided to start my own.Love it or hate it, this is from basic to boss.
