40 A Return to Episode 23: Every Successful Female Executive Has A Superhero As Her Business Partner

Hello, beautiful. So today is a repeat episode, I believe it was episode number 23, called Every Successful Female Executive Has a Superhero as Her Business Partner, and I thought that this was going to be a very appropriate episode to replay for you today, specifically, because I have just completed my long drawn out search for a new assistant!

It was very important to me as you’ll hear in the episode, that the assistant came with the qualities that I needed right now in my business. And so as you recall, I talked about my wonderful, wonderful assistant, Meghan, who is still with me, but has moved on to a different capacity. She is now managing all of the podcast operations, and I needed someone to backfill that position.

I did hire someone in between but that person didn’t work out, and I decided to follow my own advice, which is the same advice I give you, which is to hire slow and fire fast.

So I want you to enjoy this episode! Be sure to listen, take notes. Go to the show notes, download the notes, and let me know if you have any questions. You can contact me through the website. All of that information is on the show notes, and you can find me all over social media by my first and last name: Anita Charlot.
