Ep. 114: Moving Beyond Trauma To Starting Her Own Business With Lisa Abbott

Interviews, strategy and advice for building your online business with your host Trudy Rankin.

Summary

Lisa was struggling to juggle both her career and her role as a carer for a family member with ongoing health issues.

Because of the demands of her carer role, she finally had to give up on her career and was looking around for something she could do that was just for her.

When she discovered Online Business Liftoff where we teach carers and people over 50 how to start their own online business, she realised she’d found exactly what she was looking for.

As Lisa went through the program, she struggled to decide exactly what her business should be about.

In this podcast episode, Lisa shares how the Online Business Liftoff team helped her discover her calling and what has now become the heart of her business.

We talked about:

The start of Lisa’s journey into entrepreneurship
How she figured out what her business should be about and who she could help
How she now helps her clients and what’s involved
How everything starts with a quiz
Community and what that means within the Online Business Liftoff Community
Future goals for the next 5 years and how Imposter Syndrome can sometimes help us achieve those goals

Being a carer and finding time to focus on something that’s all your own can be a difficult balancing act. Lisa’s story is proof that it is possible.

If you’re interested in hearing more about Lisa’s journey from struggling carer, to having a business of her own, have a listen. You’ll be glad you did.
