What if Your Dream Pet Career Isn’t a Good Fit?

In this episode, I’m talking to the delightful Chichi Enu. I got to know Chichi through Instagram during the pandemic. At the time, she was starting a pet sitting business and I invited her to come on the podcast and talk about that experience. I love featuring women who are in all phases of business growth. There aren’t a lot of resources where you can hear directly from someone who’s figuring it out at the start all the way up to someone who's grown a six-figure business. I love being that outlet! But, when I originally reached out the Chichi she kinda declined the invitation. In the nicest way possible, of course. Finally, about a year later reached out to say she was ready for the interview. But it’s not about how to start a pet sitting business… instead, it’s about what to do if you realize that your dream pet career isn’t the right fit. I’m so grateful to Chichi for openly sharing how she discovered that pet sitting wasn’t a good fit for her over a year into the business and what she’s doing now instead. Over the past few years, “pivot” was the big business buzzword! And you know what, it’s OK to do a total 180, too. There isn’t one right way to do anything. As long as you have a passion for what you do, that will come through in your business. Whether it’s pet sitting, blogging, podcasting, making treats and accessories, training pets or anything else.
