Maybe you are a stay-at-home mom, and you want to start a business. Maybe it relates to the career you had prior to motherhood, or maybe it’s a completely new idea. Whatever it is, you want to create something new.

Maybe it’s to contribute financially to your family, maybe it’s because you want something that’s “just yours” and the adventure of business sounds fun/exciting to you, or maybe it’s for so many reasons that you can’t even pinpoint them exactly, you just know you’re feeling called to this, passionate about this, and you have capacity to add something else to your plate.

If that’s you, this episode is for you. I’m sharing four pieces of advice I’d give the stay-at-home mom who wants to start a part-time business.

No matter where you are in your business journey, you need to hear this. I'm chatting with Maggie Patterson, who is absolutely incredible as you're about to get to hear. She's the editorial director at Scoop Studios and she's the creator of BS Free business. She's an advocate for humane business practices, rooted in respect, empathy, and trust. And she is someone who's really trying to change the way we have been taught to run our businesses and the way we've been taught to market for the better.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What online business has in common with cults, MLMs and self-help culture
• Scammy online business practices to watch out for both from a consumer standpoint
• How you can better market your business without hopping on these “trends”
• What luxury lifestyle marketing is and why it works
• The problem with super expensive coaching and masterminds
• The evolution of online business over the last decade
