What It's About
How a belly dancer wiggled her way to her first $1,000.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1983
Today’s episode is part of a new feature we’re doing in 2022 called ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000. How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story. One thing I’ve learned is that once you begin to earn real money, the steps required to go to the next level—whether it’s $1,000 to $2,000, or even to $5,000 or $10,000 are often easier than that first real paycheck. With that in mind, today’s feature comes from Jennifer Sobel. We first featured her on Episode #1704: The Six-Figure Belly Dancing Course. The business grew to become a huge success. But what about her first $1,000—how did she make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did they learn? Listen to today's episode to learn more...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
