Episode #24
“My Business Became My Entire Identity”
Laura Jane Barnes is an entrepreneur, creator, musician, and social media savant who also happens to be a TikTok & IG viral sensation. (You’ve probably heard one of her songs!)
In this interview, Laura shares her biggest business mistake: the inability to separate her personal identity from her business.
I talk about my own personal loss and Laura recounts her journey from viral music creation on social media to redefining her business approach after a critical injury.
Together, we examine how tying your identity too closely to business successes can often be disastrous.
