Memorable Quotes:
- “I fell in love with what being an entrepreneur is and being a business owner and what that opportunity could look like for me.”
- “Really overwhelming. There's so many trends. You feel like you have to dance, you feel like you have to do what everyone else is doing, but that's so not the case.”
- “You have to show up. I know we hear this a lot, but I'm just going to reiterate it. You have to show up and be your true, authentic self.”
- “So it's really just remembering why you're on TikTok and what is the purpose of you making these videos? And if it's for views and if it's to go viral, then it'll be a lot harder to have success on the platform.”
