How Jaclyn Johnson Grew Her Create & Cultivate Events from 25 Friends to 1000s of Empowered Entrepreneurs

 

How can you execute your vision and create the best experience for your customer? Jaclyn Johnson, founder and CEO of Create & Cultivate, podcaster and bestselling author of WorkParty almost went back to a day job after her first company nearly burned her out. But she decided to bet on herself, and now she's built an empire where she can lead other female founders to build the business of their dreams. She shares the importance of thoughtfulness when things don't go as planned, the best basic tenets of starting any business, and the reason why we should all be like horses and race with blinders on.
