An online business sounds promising with flexibility for many. But leading  your online business or expanding your brand online can bring up a lot of fear at first. 

But when Kari Poppleton was diagnosed with a disability later in life and didn’t have the same physical capabilities she previously had, an online business was an exciting opportunity that gave her hope for having a fulfilling career that could meet her needs.

She knew she could design a service and create an online business that would allow her the flexibility she needed for her well-being while giving her the opportunity to replace her disability income. 

In this episode, Kari and I discuss how she designed an online business to support her disability. She also shares how she overcame the idea that she needed to “prove she was worthy” — a fear many of us face when becoming more visible and expanding our brand online.

“If you have a disability, you are still every bit as valuable, and the work that you do is so worthy for the companies that you're working for.

Whatever the limitation is, it doesn't matter. People just want you to be able to fulfill on what it is you promised to do.”
