Good Morning Entrepreneurs – Show #137
Theme: Curiosity In Business
Summary:
Curiosity takes the pressure off entrepreneurship. You don’t have to have all the answers; you just have to start asking better questions. In this episode, Kim and Denise show how leading with “I wonder…” instead of “I should…” turns your business into an experiment instead of a test you can fail.
You’ll hear from our RR Reporters on later‑in‑life entrepreneurship, AI and SEO, starting simple with fitness, surprise‑and‑delight marketing, and sharing “messy” stories as a mama entrepreneur. We wrap with Princess Speak, today’s phrase “Adventure Mindset,” and a tiny curiosity task you can do today.

Final Thoughts from Kim
- A tiny curiosity task you can do today, not someday:
- Pick one person: a client, friend, follower, or someone who’s asked about your business.
- Ask them one curious question, such as:
- “What feels hardest right now?”
- “If you could wave a magic wand and fix one thing this month in your business, what would it be?”
Use what you hear as fuel for your next piece of content, your next offer, or your next small experiment.
