    Ep 256 | What's Really Holding Your Business Back (It's Not Strategy) -with Tiffany Carter

    What does it take to scale when part of you still wants safety? In this episode, we're talking with Tiffany Carter, money attachment expert and host of ProjectME with Tiffany Carter, about the mindset side of scaling a business. We get into the tug-of-war between the identity that wants more and the identity that wants safety, how to get unstuck when your income has plateaued, and what to do with the "what if it doesn't work" thoughts that kill momentum. Whether you're in the thick of scaling or still hesitating to take the first step, this conversation is for you. **"How to Sell Your Stuff on Etsy" is not affiliated with or endorsed by Etsy.com STUFF I MENTIONED: ⭐ PROFITTREE: Try it free (and get your prompts): https://profittree.io/?via=lizzie85 Get the BEST deal for the year (insane value): https://lifetime.profittree.io/?via=lizzie87 How to connect your ProfitTree to your Claude: https://www.loom.com/share/1f70c5c31a0f4864a965ea2fd1f4adf4 ⭐Join us in Scaling Society: https://www.howtosellyourstuff.com/scaling-society Use code 50SCALE to get your first month for $97.
