This week’s episode is a re-air that couldn’t come at a better time. As we mark 12 years in business, we’re revisiting a conversation that pulls back the curtain on what “overnight success” really looks like. RE-AIR: We’ve all heard the stories of “overnight success”—but let’s be real, that’s rarely how it actually happens. In this episode of Voted Least Likely, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own journey and breaking down some of the key milestones I’ve reached in business… and how long they actually took. Spoiler: it wasn’t overnight. From taking six years to become profitable, eight years to gain earned media, and the countless small wins (and setbacks) along the way, I’m sharing the truth about what it really takes to build something sustainable. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “behind” in your business, this episode is for you. Tune in for: ✨ A breakdown of my business milestones and the REAL timelines behind them (I have a feeling I might regret sharing these later) ✨ Why the idea of overnight success is misleading (and damaging) ✨ A reminder that slow growth is still growth—and often the most sustainable kind If this episode resonates with you, let me know!
