Episode Description
This is Part 2 of a 5-part series of The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward with Frida Deguise, founder of L.A Donuts and Frida’s Pies in Sydney, Australia.
In this series, we’re talking about what no one tells you about running a small business.
In this episode, we move from the story of starting a business into the reality of running one.
Frida shares what she expected business ownership to be, creating products, serving customers, and building something meaningful, and how quickly that expectation collided with reality.
What she didn’t expect was everything else.
Managing staff. Navigating regulations. Dealing with accountants, contracts, and compliance. Learning to trust people, and then dealing with what happens when that trust is broken.
This episode is about the part of business no one prepares you for.
Not the work, but the weight of responsibility, the emotional toll, and the constant pressure of being accountable for everything.
