Episode description

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Ann Carden, CEO and Founder of Expert In You.

Ann delved into her entrepreneurial journey, which began in Missouri, influenced by her father, an entrepreneur. Ann's early ventures started with a doll business that she grew into a global enterprise, crafting and selling her own line of dolls. This experience instilled in her a deep understanding of business mechanics, leading her to build and manage multiple successful health clubs and weight loss centers. It was through these ventures that she realized her passion for coaching, initially in health and wellness, and later in business, after hiring her first business coach who helped her unlock new potential.

Ann emphasized the importance of resilience and focusing on solutions rather than problems, a lesson learned from both personal experiences and coaching others. She discussed how setting challenging, realistic goals, paired with a detailed strategy, has driven her success. Ann highlighted the necessity of having a strong "why" behind goals to maintain motivation and achieve them. Her journey from a small-town entrepreneur to a global business coach underscores the power of determination, continuous learning, and the ability to adapt and grow through each business phase.
