Your Millie Moment
Don’t tackle challenges alone, start your own mini mastermind!
Here’s how to do it:
Gather 2–3 fellow store owners you trust and respect.
Schedule a monthly brainstorming session even just an hour works!
Have everyone bring one challenge they’re facing (like tariffs, slow sales, or staffing).
Collaborate to share ideas, solutions, and fresh perspectives.
Remember: when you share ideas, you multiply them and that’s how problems turn into possibilities and ideas turn into cash.
