• Some great quotes from Charlotte!
• About tipping your toes in the water: “I think it’s a good idea, before you go all in on something, to try it out. Like the first course that I did was a pretty low investment…. Try a couple of different things as long as you’re not in that state of trying different things for too long, like as long as you have a goal of trying things in order to make a decision.”
• About why she works with parenting, weddings, and real estate businesses: “To me, it’s about building that life that you’ve always dreamed of… I work with their clients because you wouldn’t really work in that industry unless you cared about people and it attracts people who are passionate about families and creating a good experience for people.”
• About how teaching preschoolers can be similar to writing copy: “You have to start with understanding them first… You have to get on their level and let them know — ‘I know you’re not happy about doing this. I get it. You’re frustrated…’ — before they’re gonna listen to you.”
