She’s also the creator of Brand with Purpose, a ten-week mentorship program for women entrepreneurs. Know what it is you want to do - passion, skills, and interest - then build your brand on that. After all the pivots she made, Alisha finally said yes to her calling to write. For over 6 years, she has worked with women entrepreneurs teaching them how to gain clarity in their business. Her group program, Brand with Purpose, guides creatives to build their brand, create better content, and define their signature product. Listen as Alisha talks about how she handled those big life decisions, how she committed to her mission to write, and how she helps creative women build their life and business on purpose. Let’s get into it! Episode Quotes "Some days are really bad, but you have to keep going because the next day could be the day that changes your entire life." "People want accountability and structure and group programs are perfect for that." "We are in a season now where people crave community over information." "If what you are giving away for free doesn't make you want to slap a price on it, it is not good enough." "Don't be afraid to change... dwelling too much on making decisions makes you stuck."
