In this interview I wanted to find out how my friend Jaime Tardy took being in debt and turned it into a thriving expert’s enterprise and a book deal with Wiley. Jaime shares some great insights into her humble beginning and how she snags interviews with Guy Kawasaki, Michael Port and more. Listen carefully for her approach to dealing with these celebrity bloggers and entrepreneurs.

Couple of takeaways:

** What you are going through in your life is probably what lots of others are going through as well. Instead of trying to hide or minimize your experience, explode it into helpful lessons for others.

** People will say “Yes”, even when you are starting out. You may not always get the go-ahead for the book deal, interview, collaboration, or whatever, but you do need to keep asking.

Sorry, the sound quality is a little sketchy on this one (I’m learning!). You can easily hear everything, there is just a bit of line interference that comes in occasionally.

Enjoy and drop a comment below – I’ll write back!
