According to Helen Paas and Helen Maidre, the hardest thing in growing a small business is starting. They emphasize that taking the initial leap requires embracing uncertainty and stepping out of the safety of a stable environment, which can be daunting.

Helen Maidre finds inspiration in "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius, a timeless guide to leadership and personal resilience. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Helen Paas and Helen Maidre suggest focusing on specific topics of interest rather than following particular podcasts. They recommend delving into topics relevant to your business growth and exploring targeted resources. For professional tools, they emphasize moving to structured email tools like Zendesk or Intercom for customer communication, which offer better insights and scalability compared to general platforms like Gmail. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Helen Paas and Helen Maidre did not specifically recommend any particular podcasts or online learning resources but emphasized a practical and focused approach to learning. Helen Maidre prefers diving into specific topics of interest rather than following particular podcasts, while Helen Paas has shifted her focus from consuming content to creating it, which helps her process ideas more effectively.

What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business?
