Episode #93 // Jasmine Star on Authenticity and Haters

October 11, 2016
"Give yourself grace. That's the hardest thing that any boss could do."
- Jasmine Star

Today we’re excited to welcome Jasmine Star on Being Boss. Jasmine became one of the most sought after photographers in California in 2007, and in 2009 she was named on of the top 10 wedding photographers in the world. This was only after starting her photography business in 2006. Now she provides coaching for other creative businesses so we’ve got a lot to talk about scaling a business, shifting focus, and dealing with that inner critic and haters.
