In this podcast, Caz and I discuss:

  • How she comes from an entrepreneurial family and learned an entrepreneurial attitude at a young age from her mum.
  • How she moved to the US and got an office job in Las Vegas working in corporate marketing but soon realised that it wasn’t as fun as she anticipated it to be and how she realised she wasn’t suited for the corporate world and she felt stifled.
  • How Tim Ferriss’ book, The 4 Hour Work Week, opened her eyes to this different way of looking at work + discovered FEA in 2017 and decided to join FEA instead of continuing to focus on her corporate career.
  • First thing she did: she looked into her company’s policy on starting a “side hustle”, thought about the lifestyle she wanted, wanted flexibility, fit the lifestyle. Honed in on her marketing skill and how badly she wanted to leave. Identified why she really wanted to quit and what she needed to do to make it happen.
  • Biggest ways FEA has helped her: seeing the community and how other women did it inspired her. The monthly calls and visualisation.
  • How she managed her schedule building a business around her busy 9-5 and family commitments.
  • How she visualised the feeling she would feel and the music she would play driving away from her office for the last time.
  • How she feels looking back and having come so far and overcoming the challenges of juggling both her job and her business.
  • How she started finding most of her clients from the FEA Members’ Club.

Caz’s top tips for success are:

  • You can learn any strategy, but mindset is the thing that will make or break you!
  • Go out and make sure that your business is what your audience wants and don’t wait until you have a business to start building your audience. You can start a Facebook page today! If you’re networking in Facebook Groups and putting yourself out there, people will look for you online! Share what you’re doing, build your audience and don’t give up!
