I'm not the first to say that pulling off a product launch for your business can be an emotional roller coaster.

There is a lot at stake when launching a new business venture or a new product…

There's risk of so many things not working…and a lot on the line including time, money, and disappointment.

Today's episode is a heartfelt chat about how to prepare for the darker side of launching.

Understanding some of the more daunting things that can happen during a launch and knowing how to deal with them should make the challenge a little easier.

I talk about four of these challenges that can happen during a launch and how to approach each of these things. During a launch, you can experience a roller coaster of emotions, stress, and any number of issues that could affect your health, bank account, confidence, and motivation. I also share strategies that can help with these issues and coping with the demands of life and launching.
