Sam Vander Wielen is an attorney-turned-entrepreneur and leading legal educator to online business owners and she is BACK on the Life with Liz Podcast after a few years to tell us all about her new book, When I Start My Business, I’ll Be Happy (OUT NOW!!).
Sam is the founder of Sam Vander Wielen LLC, the go-to contract template shop for online business owners that generates multi-seven-figure revenue annually. As the author of the book, When I Start My Business, I’ll Be Happy, and host of the On Your Terms® podcast, she cuts through the noise with no-fluff legal tips, refreshingly honest marketing strategies, and down-to-earth business advice to help entrepreneurs grow with confidence. Since 2017, Sam has helped over 350,000 online entrepreneurs legally protect their online businesses, all while navigating the devastating back-to-back losses of her parents, her own brain surgery, and becoming a caretaker.
So, why am I talking to her?
Not only has Sam helped me immensely over the years in my business but she's also helped me level up my confidence in life. If you're expecting a drove of legal and marketing tips, think again. Instead, we have a fantastic conversation about following your calling and having the courage to go for it anyway, even when life throws you curveballs.
