Kelly shares 5 tips for anyone scared about starting a new venture:
1. Step into action. We hold back when we’re scared. Action propels us through fear.
2. Network with like-minded souls. Get out into the world with people who are starting new things.
3. Find a mentor. Someone who inspires you. They don’t have to be a businessperson.
4. Partner with people. Businesses don’t live in a silo. Share ideas and find ways to support one another.
5. Look after yourself. If you’re not socially, physically, and emotionally healthy, your venture won’t be either.
