I started the EPM with a product idea on brand building I was passionate about, but not completely clear on, and the first challenge I hit was DARN IT Marisa is actually the best in the world when it comes to branding, how can I ever compete?
It took 4 iterations of the product and a lot of soul searching to discover what it is that I can be the best in the world at, and now I've created an amazing program exactly because I was challenged to really dive into my talents (something I've always been too lazy to do). The best learning experience ever!
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
1. Focus on what you do 120%
2. Take action, even if you don't feel like it, because that changes everything
3. Discovering the FUN in iterating, pivoting and experimenting
How did EPM help you become successful?
Focus, for one. Community (including the EPM team and the students) helped me go through a challenging process of discovering what it is that I have to offer to the world, and to NOT give up when I felt it was all for nothing.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Before, I wasn't very clear on what my business actually is and what's my place in it, and now, with so much focus on this product and why I am THE person to deliver it, I've found a lot more clarity and confidence in my own abilities to serve the world my way.
What are you most excited about moving forward with your Experience Product? 'm super duper excited about delivering it! I've created something I believe is truly amazing, and I can't wait to share it with my students.
