• Control Is a Myth: What I Learned From a Business Flop

  Discipline isn’t about hustle or perfection—it’s a form of self-care. It’s believing in where you’re going, even when no one else sees it.In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a business moment that broke my heart—one of my most anticipated classes flopped due to a major tech fail (thank you, AWS 😅). After weeks of preparation, thousands of registrations, and a heart-driven message I couldn’t wait to share… hardly anyone could access it.It was devastating.But it became a powerful lesson in letting go of control and focusing on what really matters: effort over outcome.If you’ve ever asked, “Why is this happening?”—this episode is for you.Because yes, things will go wrong in business. And yes, you’ll still be okay.Click >>PLAY<< to hear all of this and:[01:00] Why overthinking is really a desire for control (and why that never works)[03:06] The origin of the class that “flopped” and why it was so personally meaningful[04:06] Preparing like crazy for a no-pitch, heart-centered live event[05:08] Tech goes down: the moment everything unraveled (and what I did next)[06:30] The mindset shift that saved the day: “Everything happens for me”[09:25] How this experience transformed how I show up—and why I’m still gratefulListen to Related Episodes:How to Turn Marketing Setbacks into Future SuccessThe One Skill Every Entrepreneur Needs to DevelopWhat to Do When the Unexpected Happens📧 Join my Newsletter for a weekly cocktail of insider business strategy, personal reflections, and the journey of being a thought leader: https://jasminestar.com/newsletter 📧For full show notes, visit jasminestar.com/podcast/episode605You know that feeling when you find a platform that just works—and you never have to worry about switching?
