I think what separates a career entrepeneur vs. an instagram wantrepeneur is their ability to power through diversity and setbacks. Having faced plenty myself (video production business got robbed christmas eve for 20k worth of camera gear, real estate projects dragging on for over a year) the act of overcoming it has made me so much better than just coasting off easy wins.

What have your setbacks and failures been and how did you grow from them?

    Dude my LinkedIn account got banned out of NO-WHERE recently. They asked me to confirm my identity. So I did but they upheld the ban because my profile is under my middle name instead of my first name ?? Mind you this isn’t against their by-laws but now I’m sitting here for weeks now waiting for them to unban my LinkedIn.

    It’s a ridiculous setback out of nowhere. I am in the B2B space so LI is how I get all my leads. I’ve had that account for 10 years with 15k followers, managing my company page, etc. I can’t believe they can get away with this type of thing with ZERO explanation.
