203 / Treating Your Business Like A Business To Protect It (And You) Financially

This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil

There are a lot of women out there that are in business. In fact, around 40% of all US based businesses are owned by women, and these businesses employ around 10 million workers. As it stands today, women are more likely to start a business than men are.

Which makes you brave. Because running a business in any form and at any scale is hard. Each and every stage has its own challenges, and those challenges evolve, they don’t disappear.

On this episode I share my lessons on how to treat your business like a business, so that you can protect that business AND yourself. So you can not just look like a real business, but actually be one, so you can go into your work with confidence and credibility, and so your business challenges don’t bleed into and become your personal challenges too.

As the quote says: treat your business like a business and it’ll pay you like one. Treat your business like a hobby and it’ll cost you like one.

Know your value. Find your people. Give greatly and protect fiercely.
