Most women don't fail at building a business online, they quit before it works!!

Jasmine Star is one of the OGs of online business. She walked away from a full-ride scholarship to UCLA Law School to become a photographer before she even owned a camera. She made $100,000 her first year, went on to win awards for her work, and started helping other photographers build their businesses.

In 2016, she paid $25,000 to join a mastermind where her hot seat question was "what's a webinar?" Two months later, her first course did $255K in five days, all organic, and the next launch did over $1 million. Since then she's built a membership, a tech company (without knowing a line of code), and a coaching program with its own team of coaches, and she's been on more than a thousand calls with women building their businesses.

Live on stage, Macy asked Jasmine what separates the women who make it from the ones who stall out. Her answer wasn't strategy, and it wasn't better content.
