Taking questions from the live audience is one of our favorite parts of the Living Room Session, and this group brought up amazing topics. We share the first steps to take when you’re planning an in-person event and how to get really clear on your budget for it. Another question has us reflecting on how we stay grounded, even when things feel financially uncomfortable, and the creative ways we generate more income during those moments. Plus, we talk about how to start building out your network for a ‘friends and family’ funding round.

EPISODE TIMELINE

(0:25) Welcome back to Earn Your Happy. Today, Lori is joined by Lindsey Schwartz for another Living Room Session episode. 

(2:59) Question #1: I want to do a two-day summit next April. Where do I start? 

(8:33) Question #2: Is it bad to feel guilty to want to make money when I know I’m helping people?

(11:07) Question #3: How did you overcome that extreme imposter syndrome when you were transitioning into a new career? 

(16:21) Question #4: What was the most recent ‘aha’ moment that you had? And what are you doing in your life or your business because of that? 

(22:39) Question #5: How are you able to stay grounded and stay focused to keep moving forward when you’re in unfamiliar territory from a financial standpoint?

(30:14) Question #6: Do you have some sort of ritual that you do after you make a big decision?

(32:16) Question #7: When you started to seek investors, how did you know it was time? And how did you start that conversation?

(34:57) Question #8: In the absence of having a friends and family round, how do you even start to open those doors? Or who do you start to reach out to to get that buy-in?

I just got back from the GrowthDay LIVE event and it still feels like I’m living in a daydream. Getting to speak on that stage and be surrounded by people who so deeply inspire me is something I’ll never get over, but I’ll be real with you – there was a lot of self-doubt and overwhelm leading up to that moment.

Luckily, I had my faith, my tribe, and a lot of prep work on my side so that I could be the vessel and experience the transformation. If you’re in the middle of something really challenging right now, this episode is for you.

We’re in Austin for the GrowthDay LIVE event and it’s been such an energy boost! These rooms not only plug us back into our community and help us meet new people, but they’re also a great reminder of why it’s so important to celebrate what makes you unique. 

We’re sharing takeaways from Ed Mylett’s impactful keynote speech and unpack how his message landed for us. Plus, I share what I do to alleviate my nerves before I get on stage. Stay tuned for an upcoming episode where we’re going to recap more of this weekend!
