SUMMARY:

Creating your own company from the ground up is not easy by any means.

Start-up businesses always have their ins and outs, their do’s and don’t’s, and maybe even their “yes, and’s” and “no, but’s”.

On this resilience episode of Unleashing YOUR Great Work, we get to meet and speak with advisor, author, and founder of BusinessRiff, Mary Scott. Mary has always considered herself a “connector” and has found Great Work in connecting people of many skills and resources to help their start-up businesses flourish. However, starting a business can have it’s drawbacks, and it’s important to remember your own value and self-care when the going gets tough.

A big fan of getting “off-planet” (a term coined to describe the escape from work life into rejuvenating self-care), Mary gives us the reassurance that if we know what works for us, and more importantly what DOESN’T work for us, we can achieve a conquering mindset of changing the world in what whatever Great Work we have to give.

About the Guest:

Mary Scott, award-winning filmmaker, founder of BusinessRiff and author of the St. Louis Startup ResourceGuide, wants StartUps to be wildly successful.

As an advisor to hundreds of established businesses and startups, she works with inventors, tech & product founders, and solopreneurs to get them organized, and pitch perfect to present to investors and get checks instead of chuckles.

This is going to be Fun!
