[00:00:07] Episode 1, Season 1! Woo! In this week's episode, we are talking about a well crafted life and the seven elements that go into that well crafted life. All right, let's get into it! [00:00:22] welcome to making it the business of making and selling products where passion meets profit and each episode explores what it takes to make it with experts sharing their insights on building a business from ideation to manufacturing to marketing to scaling and beyond. I'm your host Danielle. My husband and I started a soap and cologne business in 2013 and grew it to nearly 4 million in revenue in 2022. [00:00:49] We bled sweat and ugly cried over every aspect of this industry. It was a lonely road, but it doesn't have to be. I am on a quest to end entrepreneurial loneliness and enjoy the wild ride with you. So let's get to making it. [00:01:04] Last April, I went to a conference and it totally changed my life. I had such an aha moment there sitting in this conference. [00:01:15] I got pretty much a front row seat to Shaan Puri telling me The secret to life and the secret to happiness. [00:01:27] If you're not sitting forward in your seat or walking forward a little faster, you're missing it. [00:01:32] And he is, if you're not familiar with Shaan Puri, he has a very popular podcast called My First Million. He also has an incredible newsletter that I recommend signing up for, subscribing to because it's fabulous. I'll link it in the show notes. But he said. Well, first of all, he had walked away from two businesses that failed, he shut them down, and he has exited, sold two businesses, and now he's on his I don't know, whatever business. [00:02:07] But his whole thing was craft your life around what you want your life to look like. [00:02:15] Like, Just, life tends to stack up however it stacks up. If you don't craft it. Things happen, you know, amazing coincidences happen, shit happens. Like there's a bunch and a lot of times we're just kind of a cork on the ocean But if you start with what you want your life to look like and then you work backwards and you look at you know Okay, what other people are living a life like this and what blueprint --what path did they take to get there? You can actually get a real shortcut. It's amazing. And so he was up there talking and he was like, what I realized is I want to travel. I would like to spend time with my family. And I want flexible life and then he also said, and you got to think about what, how you like to sell. [00:03:24] Now I know sales are a big thing for people and we'll talk about that in a future episode. Don't worry about that right now now, When planning your life, when planning your goals, one of the things that I think is really important to remember is there's no such thing as happily ever after. [00:03:41] You are a changing person and every time you experience something you get to decide whether that thing is what you want or whether it's what you don't want and it's okay to not want things that you used to want. That's totally fine. There are some things that you can get out of easier than others. [00:04:02] You can get out of taking a wrong turn on the freeway. No, God, you can't actually get out of taking a wrong turn on the freeway. Bad example. If you take a wrong turn on, when you're driving, Other than on the freeway, if you get off on the wrong exit or something like that, you know, your navigation system reroutes you that's, that's totally fine. [00:04:26] It's very flexible, so in looking at this, don't think this is what I want for the rest of my life. Think, this is what looks good to me. [00:04:36] This is what I feel in my gut is interesting and then you can say like this doesn't fit or this does fit and I'd like to explore that more. But if you don't start going in that direction, if you don't start thinking about it, then you can't try it out. So let's talk about the different aspects of life that you might be looking at. [00:04:58] So let's start with family. The reason that family is so important is because whether you're talking about your birth family or your chosen family, it is likely the group that you spend the most time with. And so if you meet, you know, if this is a very close friend circle, if you have roommates that you're very close to, if you are in a non monogamous relationship and you have a fleet of partners, I don't care. [00:05:27] Family doesn't just mean your biological family. It means the people who you are closest to your inner circle. These people and animals have the most impact on your Daily enjoyment of life so I'm putting it at the top of the list. Think about your gut What you want...
