Episode #246: From 12 years in corporate to full time in her biz with Katie Dennsiton

I’m so excited for today’s guest, Katie Denniston.  In 2020, Katie decided that she was done working a 9-5 she didn't love. In the height of postpartum and the pandemic, she felt the weight of the world on her shoulders.  Until she decided to do something about it.

With a background working for companies like such as Hilton and Coca-Cola, Katie garnered invaluable experience and insights. She started a Virtual Assistant businesses in August of 2020 with immediate success and by September of 2021, she was able to leave her 9-5 to take her business full time.

Quitting her corporate job was a pivotal moment. The transition enabled her to empower others to break free from corporate, to strategize, and to build their dreams with confidence.

 

Listen and you’ll hear:

  • The practical steps Katie took when she decided to leave her 9-5, that you should and shouldn’t do!
  • What its like trusting your gut & leaning into your faith (or belief system), when other's don't believe in you.
  • Why others question online business versus more “practical” business that someone knows and needs.
  • What worked really well to help create the success when Katie was transitioning into her business.

I hope hearing Katie’s story encourages you to trust yourself and take the leap of faith before you are actually ready!
