EP 177: What to say when people give you (bad) business advice

 

This week’s episode was inspired by students in 2 programs I facilitate — The Bodywork Project and Next Level.

Recently, several students shared stories about getting terrible (unsolicited) advice from others, and they weren’t sure what to do.

Tune in to find out the best ways to respond to someone who gives you business advice, which is often bad — and unsolicited.

“If you get bad advice from someone about your business, do your best to stay grounded and centered. Don’t let it rattle you. Here’s a couple other things you can do as well.”

This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast:

  • Learn 3 questions to ask yourself when someone gives you business advice.

  • And how the energy you put out into the world — aka, confidence — can help you avert random encounters with those seeking to improve your massage or bodywork business.
