In this episode of the Mattie James podcast we’re discussing how to find your confidence as an influencer. This is a question I tend to get fairly often from followers and listeners alike. Confidence as an influencer didn’t happen overnight and we all have our days. Turns out, there are 3 things I had to do to find that confidence: be aware of my value, research the market relentlessly and know my audience.

In this episode of the Mattie James podcast we’ll be discussing the 4 Seasons of Success and exactly what they look like. There’s a misconception that success should happen faster than it actually does, when achieving success actually has various seasons. It certainly doesn’t happen overnight and to become the successful version of yourself, you’re going to have to go through each season no matter who you are. Identifying these seasons has helped me to be tremendously aware of where I am in my journey as an influencer and entrepreneur and by the end of this episode my hope is that it’ll bring you much awareness as well.
