Learning to Live with Courage with Natalie Franke (Part 1)
Manage episode 378824926 series 3316966
Joining us today is Natalie Franke, a best-selling author, community builder, neuroscience nerd, and mama bear for small businesses. She founded The Rising Tide Society (a game-changer in community building for entrepreneurs), which was acquired by HoneyBook in 2015. Now, at Flodesk, she continues to empower entrepreneurs globally. Her latest publication, Gutsy: Learning to Live with Bold, Brave, and Boundless Courage, is a remarkable book that motivates readers to embrace their inner courage. For the first part of our conversation with Natalie, we learn about her entrepreneurial journey, from her ambitious side hustle as a wedding photographer in college to the deep loneliness she felt when she lost that sense of community. She shares how she established The Rising Tide Society as a space where entrepreneurs and small business owners could foster belonging and why she continues to be a fierce advocate for small business owners and healthy competition. Natalie also opens up about what it was like being diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. She shares what the experience taught her about vulnerability and courage, from the risks it posed to her eyesight and fertility to the unexpected reciprocity she experienced when she decided to be honest with her community. There is so much wisdom to be gained from today’s conversation. Be sure to listen in for all of Natalie’s inspiring insights on vulnerability, community, and courage, and join us next time for part two!
