Trust me – I get it.  I'm Danielle - co-founder of bossbabe + this is my story.

Less than 5 years ago, I was a full-time chiropractor, working 9-5 (let’s be real more like 8-7) in a job that drained me and coming home to a home life that felt just…hard.

Maybe you’ve been there? 

I couldn’t put my finger on it – but something was missing in my life. And the more I tried to ignore it, the more it seemed to beg for my attention.

• I ignored the tug – then money started to feel tight, and I wondered if there was a better way to make money than hustling for clients all day.
• I ignored it again – then work got more exhausting and I struggled to find deeper meaning + purpose in it all.
• I ignored it again – then my dad had a skiing accident, and instead of getting to be with him, I had to go into a job I hated every day.
• I ignored it again – then my relationship became a challenge and left me feeling worse off than before.

Honestly? At that stage, I didn’t have a clear path forward. I had no idea if I would be successful or if everything was going to fall flat…

Should I start a business? Should I quit my job? Should I move? Should I change my path?

At the end of the day – I just knew I wanted more.

So even though everyone thought I was going to fail, I took a leap of faith and started my own business – first as a side hustle, then as a full-time thing + now, well, the rest is history.

Instead of taking the safe path forward or following the day-to-day grind I thought I was “supposed to” follow, I bet on myself.

I believed to my core that I deserved to love my work every day, have a deeper purpose, make an impact – and still be able to make an income I was proud of that truly supported myself and my loved ones.

I’ll share the details later, but I ended up following a simple (but effective!) framework to transform my mindset and start/grow my business. 

But honestly, that’s not the point…

If all you know right now is that you want more...that’s enough.

You don’t need to have your next steps perfectly defined. 

You don’t need to have your business idea fully ironed out. In fact, you don’t even need to know for sure that you WANT to be an entrepreneur.

But during that season I learned three things I think might be really helpful for you if you’re in a similar spot as me.

Can I share them with you?

       LESSON #1 - Business is 80% Mindset + 20% Skill

Most business gurus will tell you to learn tips, tricks + tactics to grow in business. And while there’s a place for that – I call B.S.

Most of your success in business comes from your mindset. Your ability to develop unwavering resilience, ask for help when you need it, be in community and get back up when you fall down.

       LESSON #2 - So much of business is slow growth, trial and error + small steps in the right direction.

When I was first starting out, I hit more roadblocks than I knew what to do with. And if you’re an entrepreneur who’s ready to give up – I want you to know your success relies on how many times you’re willing to stand back up when you fall down.

I distinctly remember friends saying, “If it’s so hard, why don’t you just quit?” or, my personal favorite, “When are you going to come back to the real world and get a job?”

Ouch.

Looking back, I am so glad I had enough confidence to stick it out. But I wish someone would have told me what I’m going to tell you right now…

If getting started is really hard, that’s not a reflection on you – it’s a reflection on what it’s really like to be an entrepreneur.

Because being an entrepreneur is hard. But if you're willing to put in the work, it's also very worth it. I promise.

       LESSON #3 - When you know you want more, and you finally find a way to make it happen...you take action.

I know it’s scary to take the leap. I know betting on yourself is incredibly vulnerable, but the question really becomes – how bad do you want more in your life?

People who really want more don’t wait for the perfect opportunity or to have it all figured out. They take one small step in the right direction. And then another. And then another…

So this is my challenge for you if you’re serious about wanting more...take one small step this week.

If you’re trying to overcome your mindset blocks – seek coaching + encouragement.
If you’re working to grow your business – seek mentorship + support.
If you’re feeling lonely in it all – seek community.

It doesn’t have to be massive. It just has to be something. And within our community, we’re helping you – every step of the way.

Your Path To Building A Life You Love Starts With Imperfect Action

You don’t have to have it all figured out – you don’t have to know exactly what your life of “more” looks like just yet. 

But you do have to show up for yourself + keep taking imperfect action if you want to see results.

How do I know? Because for me, within a handful of months of taking that imperfect action + knowing I wanted more in my life – I started to see results. 

And then I realized I was onto something…

Which is when I reverse-engineered this simple, proven, repeatable framework to help you go from wanting more in your life to having a thriving business – and I’ve packaged it all for you inside The Société.
