Welcome to our second Coffee Chat with Julie & Tara! We have a lot in common, but one thing in particular is our love for summits – both hosting and attending them. Between us, we’ve hosted ten of them, and we’ve definitely picked up a lot of tips along the way. In this coffee chat, we’re discussing all things summits, why we love them, how we started hosting them and how long it takes us to plan them out. Summits are amazing for networking for both introverts and extroverts, so we hope you catch the summit bug from us too after listening to this episode!
My coffee chat co-host is Julie C. Butler, a freedom business mentor who started her business 15 years ago as a portrait photographer and has journeyed into becoming a digital content creator and selling courses and programs. She’s a wife, a mom of two teenagers and three shih tzus and her business is allowing her to move her whole family to Costa Rica this summer!
