No matter where you are in your business journey, you need to hear this. I'm chatting with Maggie Patterson, who is absolutely incredible as you're about to get to hear. She's the editorial director at Scoop Studios and she's the creator of BS Free business. She's an advocate for humane business practices, rooted in respect, empathy, and trust. And she is someone who's really trying to change the way we have been taught to run our businesses and the way we've been taught to market for the better.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What online business has in common with cults, MLMs and self-help culture
• Scammy online business practices to watch out for both from a consumer standpoint
• How you can better market your business without hopping on these “trends”
• What luxury lifestyle marketing is and why it works
• The problem with super expensive coaching and masterminds
• The evolution of online business over the last decade

You're going to love this conversation as much as I did. It’s jam-packed, so let’s dive in!
