Show Notes
In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Tara Austin, the ambitious founder of Ruthie Grace Boutique. Tara shared her journey, from a childhood passion for fashion, inspired by her grandmothers, to starting her boutique at just 23 years old. We dove into the challenges she faced opening her store during the 2009 recession and pivoting to an online space. Tara was candid about her personal struggles with anxiety, burnout, and navigating business during the COVID-19 pandemic. She also gave some invaluable advice for aspiring entrepreneurs about building influence before launching a product and the importance of maintaining a strong team culture. This conversation is packed with insights about resilience, overcoming failure, and the realities of being an entrepreneur. Don't miss it!
