Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey by launching a coaching business but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Ben Corkery, of Reallifeed based in Peterborough, Ontario.
What's your business and who are your customers?
I coach teachers suffering burnout on how to recharge and start a hobby they enjoy.
Tell us about yourself
I have always been creative but wasn't sure how to do something with it so I went to become a teacher, but I realized I was not fulfilled in that job.
I then started multiple side-hustles and creative practices to get excited about my work again... and it worked, now I help other teachers do the same!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Helping other people get excited about their life and use their creativity.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Staying organized and focused!
What are the top 3 tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
1. Have fun with it.
2. Be disciplined.
3. Be audacious.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
I think everyone has a business, project or creative idea inside of them, and they just need the push to get it out.
