Ep 3: Brittany Aldean – Start Before You Feel Ready

Today’s guest is a delight – inside and out – and knows a thing or two about collaborating with small business, building your brand, and starting your own clothing line.

In our Nashville studio we had in the one and only Brittany Aldean! While you may have heard of her hubby (cough cough Jason Aldean) Brittany is a force in and of herself. She is a former American Idol contestant and NBA dancer turned brand collaborate and clothing line creator. And inspiration of mine!

I know that I personally struggle with perfectionism and ways  to CONTINUALLY muster up the courage and confidence to push through in my business. So one of my favorite takeaways from our conversation was her advice on how she has stepped into her own confidence. While she wasn’t always a confident person, she said with each step and risk she took, it made the next one a little less scary. But the key was TO KEEP GOING. Each project, risk, and leap helped build confidence and a path to the next thing. You simply have to keep going.

In this episode, we dive into:

–         What started her journey of brand building,

–         How she mustered up the confidence to step in front of the intimidating judges on American Idol,

–         Behind the scenes of life on the road,

–         Her personal journey with infertility, and

–         Why feeling competent at your job gives you a huge boost of confidence.

And oh yes – a special appearance is made for this interview – baby Navy! So if you hear a few baby cooes in the background, know you’re the first to experience the talent of the next big country music artist in the making.
