Pam Victor

Have you ever heard those voices in your head saying: “You can’t do this. You aren’t good enough. Why are you even trying, you will never succeed.”? We’ve all heard those voices at some point and as our guest, improv comedian and female entrepreneur Pam Victor says, it’s often the greatest among us who hear those voices most often. Pam created the F.U.C.K. I.T. philosophy to keep those voices at bay. She shares the techniques she teaches her students to get rid of those voices, which she lovingly calls Calvin or your Evil Mind Meany. Pam also talks about how she happened into becoming an improv comedian and then entrepreneur.

Episode 21: Be Your Own Boss — An interview with Entrepreneur Kristian Grant

May 25, 2017 by Tera Qualls Leave a Comment

We had the opportunity to talk with entrepreneur Kristian Grant about how she embraced her entrepreneurial spirit from a young age and what she is doing now to encourage youth to build their own businesses.

Kristian talked about how to be your own boss and how she uses her daily planner to document ideas and keep on track. Kristian also shared how many of the women she coaches through business building and visioning come to her with fears that they will not be able to make their dreams happen. Kristian says that often “we bury what we love under what we think we have to do,” which leads many women entrepreneurs settling for unhappiness in their work. To push through that she says, you need to own your confidence and check in with yourself at least once a week or every day to affirm yourself that you are heading in the right direction.

Brook Powers

This week we talk with entrepreneur Brook Powers about the art of the side hustle and the internal drive to build businesses. Brook offers great advice to other women entrepreneurs on how to trust your instincts in business and be confident in your own abilities. This is a conversation we know we needed and we’re certain you’ll also find some wisdom from Brook.

Brook is Chief Operations Officer of Griffin Properties, a residential real estate firm in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In just 5 years at Griffin, Brook has doubled the size of the team, added expansion partners, and grown sales volume from 27m to 60m. In this episode, Brook talks about how she has embraced leaning out and how she got her start as an entrepreneur with a myriad of side hustles or hobby jobs as she calls them, while working a full time job in the publishing industry in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Her drive to build businesses always kept her going and she lept out of a job she’d known for over 20 years to be an entrepreneur full time.
