026: You're thinking about proofreading...but you're wrestling with some serious imposter syndrome.

You keep asking yourself:

What if grammar doesn’t come easily to me? Can I still have a proofreading business? Will my clients take me seriously if they find out I'm not a grammar genius? 

Worse yet, how will I be able to get clients when I'm an introvert through and through and the idea of marketing makes my skin crawl? 

If those fears are nagging at you, this podcast episode is for you.

Joining me is one of my very first grads, Candace! In this episode, she slays those trepidations about not being good enough at grammar and hating marketing…because that was her when she started.

But even with those fears, she started her business in 8 weeks and has been a successful transcript proofreader for the last 3 years! 

Listen in as one of my OG grads shares what it was like to start her transcript proofreading business as a nurse, new mom, self-proclaimed okayest grammarian, and introvert…and how you can too 💪
