Start Your Business in Kentucky

From research and development to licenses and permits, we are covering it all in our upcoming workshop! Join us for this FREE workshop.

Starting a business is DIFFICULT. You have a long list of technical to-dos, the pressure of making sure everything is done the “right” way, and the task of getting your product and/or service actually seen.

I remember when I started my business years ago. I was so nervous that I was going to do something wrong. I spent days, weeks, even months stuck in the research phase. I felt lost most of the time and overwhelmed the rest.

The truth is I made the whole process of starting my business scarier and more difficult than it needed to be. It doesn’t have to be that way, and I don’t want that for you!

Whether you're an entrepreneur, aspiring small business owner, or ready to make your side hustle your full time hustle, my FREE Starting your business in Kentucky workshop is created to ease that stress.

Why choose this workshop?

Starting your business in Kentucky workshop





If you’ve ever tried to do something big on your own, you know it’s difficult. You don’t always know where or how to start. You might go down a rabbit hole once you do get started. I know I did!

But as an educator, I know how to take information, clarify it, and share it with a lot of different learning styles. Besides being an educator, I bring years of experience to this workshop. As an entrepreneur who built my own business from the ground up, I also have assisted hundreds of small business owners and entrepreneurs with getting their business started and seen by their ideal customer. YES! Hundreds!

My approach is rooted in practical experience, making my guidance valuable for those getting started on their business journey. I started with little guidance, relying on extensive research, hard work, and perseverance. Now, I'm excited to share my knowledge and help you avoid the challenges I faced along the way.
