Shawna Murphy: Growing A Business With Your Best Friend

Themes: Entrepreneurship, Self-Righteousness, Pride, Self-Censorship

This Instagram Live episode is celebrating Nicole's 1st Podcast Anniversary, with Shawna Murphy, who she interviewed in her first ever episode.

Shawna Murphy is co-founder of East Anchor Media along with Nicole. She went to NAIT in 2017 where she met and was inspired by Nicole to start her small business Everpressed Jewellery. After 3 years running her business, Shawna realized she was unfulfilled, and felt the call to help others pursue their passion & live a more joyful life doing something they love. Her and Nicole started East Anchor Media in 2022.

In this episode we talk about:

☑️ The conflicts and struggles that have arisen as two best friends growing a business together. Nicole and Shawna’s 7 Question Weekly Meeting to make sure they’re on track and avoid building resentments.

☑️ Shawna’s transformation and growth as an entrepreneur going from being shy and withdrawn to leading a business.

☑️ Handling fear of not being enough, rejection, and lack of motivation. The common fear of “who am I to teach…” that keeps people stuck in self-doubt.

☑️ The trick of pride, self-righteousness, ego and “trendy” diagnoses that are common today and how they could be keeping people small, instead of living into their potential.
