Overcoming the obstacles of starting your own business

Creating a business is similar to sustaining a healthy lifestyle. It requires hard work, perseverance, and multiple sources of support.

In this episode of HerBusiness podcast, Suzi Dafnis interviews founder of Eat Fit Food, Bianca Monley, about the way she overcomes obstacles in her business to provide fresh and healthy food options to people nationally.

Bianca understands the struggles of starting a business since she quit her job to open her business in her very own kitchen. Now, Bianca shares her advice about staying afloat and succeeding.

She emphasises staying away from trends for innovation and to instead pursue your own passion to reinvent old ideas. As a company that began before the healthy food frenzy culture began, following passion rather than trends is truly the mantra of her business.

Listen to this episode to hear more about:

  • Why you should never give up
  • The best ways to approach goals
  • How mentors and coaches can help
  • Getting cash flowing immediately
  • Prioritising your business’s needs

 

 

This post was co-authored by Christy Flom. Christy is completing a journalism internship at HerBusiness. She studies communications at the University of Michigan in the United States.
