Starting Your Business Journey: The Magic of Just Starting
Raise your hand if you’ve ever stopped yourself before you even took that first step in your business journey. (ME!) Yes, taking that very first step can seem daunting—as if you’re standing on the edge of a vast, uncharted territory. But here’s a little secret I’ve learned along the way: none of us truly know what we’re doing at the start. We’re all figuring it out, one step at a time, and there’s undeniable magic in that process.
The Myth of Perfect Timing
When it comes to starting your business journey, waiting for the perfect moment is like waiting for a star to fall—beautiful to dream about but unlikely to happen. This myth of perfect timing is often what holds us back, making us believe we need all the answers before we even begin. But let me assure you, readiness is a myth. The real growth, the real learning, happens when we step into the unknown, embracing the journey with all its ups, downs, and beautiful messiness.
The Beauty of Beginning
Creating Eve Academy and launching the Tribe of Unicorns podcast taught me that the roadmap to starting your business journey isn’t always clear or straightforward. What matters more is having a vision, a deep-seated passion, and the courage to take that first, sometimes messy, step. Yes, there will be setbacks and days filled with doubt, but there will also be triumphs, breakthroughs, and moments of pure joy that you would never experience if you hadn’t started at all.
Just Take That Step
The most intimidating part of any new venture is the beginning. But the beauty of starting your business journey is that it begins with just one step. It doesn’t have to be large, grand, or flawless—it just needs to be taken. Every step is a learning opportunity, guiding you closer to your vision and shaping your unique entrepreneurial story.
Inspired to Start
In a recent episode of Tribe of Unicorns, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kate Milligan, the visionary behind the 1 Girl Revolution podcast. Kate shared an insight that perfectly captures the essence of starting your business journey: “Believe in yourself that you can do it. Just start small and put one foot in front of the other.” Her words are a powerful reminder that the act of starting is within all of us, ready to be unleashed one day, one step at a time.
You’re Not Alone on This Journey
If you’re standing at the threshold of starting your business journey, remember, you’re not alone. We’re all navigating this path together, learning as we go, and supporting each other through every step. While it might seem like we’re all just improvising, there’s beauty in our collective exploration and the shared experience of embarking on this entrepreneurial adventure.
Ready, Set, Start!

Let’s take that first step, cheer each other on, and embark on this exciting path toward turning our dreams into reality.
