They say creating a business is like going to a haunted house – it's unpredictable, thrilling, and can be terrifying all at once. But if you’re willing enough to face every twist and turn, and learn from each bump along the way, you and your team can come out the other side stronger and more successful than ever.

So, if you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed by setbacks in the early stages of your entrepreneurial journey, look no further than this week's Boss Your Business Podcast guest, Dr. Lindsay Padilla. She is a professor turned CEO and cofounder of Hello Audio – proof that with hard work and determination, you can turn your vision into a successful business, no matter how rocky the start may be!

Meet The Guest:

Lindsay Padilla's story began as a dedicated community college professor teaching adults online. In her tenure track, she found herself asking, "Why is this so difficult?" As she navigated the challenges of course creation and online learning, she recognized the need for a solution that could streamline the process and make it more user-friendly for both educators and students.

Hello Audio was born out of Lindsay's desire to simplify the learning experience. Being the CEO and co-founder, their goals are to convert content into private audio feeds. This software allows users to listen and learn on the go, making it easier than ever to fit education into their busy lives. Imagine being able to listen to your favorite courses while working out, commuting, or simply enjoying a quiet moment to yourself — that's the power of Hello Audio!

Lindsay's leap into building the company wasn't an easy ride. In the early days of Hello Audio, she and her co-founder faced numerous obstacles that threatened the survival of their company and products. They encountered unexpected hurdles from a shady collaborator, including technical difficulties, funding challenges, and even the loss of some development team members.

Despite these setbacks, Lindsay and her team remained focused, and determined to bring their vision to life. They worked tirelessly to overcome each challenge, eventually finding success in creating a software that makes learning more accessible and convenient than ever before.

Lindsay has also become a SaaS-preneur and is part of a growing movement that's transforming the way we do business. SaaS solutions offer a scalable, flexible, and cost-effective alternative to traditional software, making it easier for businesses of all sizes to access the tools they need to succeed.

Starting a business can be wild and tough, but trusting the process and leveling up from all the struggles will eventually lead to major wins. Just like Lindsay and her co-founders had a bumpy beginning, you too can rise above and slay the game.

So do me a favor and take a deep breath, embrace the chaos, and don't forget to check out the full episode of Boss Your Business with Lindsay Padilla to hear more about her inspiring journey!
