I truly believe that failing is the best way to learn life’s most valuable lessons. If you’re not failing, you’re holding yourself back from living up to your true potential and from being wildly successful.
I had the pleasure of interviewing a brilliant email marketing expert and copywriting course creator, Tarzan Kay (isn’t her name just fabulous?). Tarzan was never financially secure growing up and well into adulthood. Born into an intensely Christian family, (where she could only wear dresses, couldn’t watch TV, etc.), she was basically forced to focus on finding her life’s purpose.
Tarzan credits her strict (& often tumultuous) childhood for who she is today. As a teenager, she fell into a life of drug use but found the incredible strength at age 20 to slam on the breaks and not allow herself to continue down that dark path.
She became one of the world’s best copywriters (charging thousands of dollars a day for her amazing work) and has since focused her career on creating online courses to help other entrepreneurs learn the incredible skill of writing to sell (a.k.a copywriting).
Now a mom of 2, she’s the breadwinner for her family and wouldn’t have it any other way. She has found her life’s purpose and candidly shares all the failures that brought her to where she is today.
She also opens up about the truth behind how the marketing industry feeds into unrealistic expectations for your business (no one talks about this!)
As you listen to this episode, you’ll also hear:
The fascinating story behind her name (this is EPIC)
The one thing she wishes she knew when she first started
How your failures ultimately lead to your biggest successes
The intense moment she “woke up” and gained awareness at a whole different level (brace yourself for this one—it’s utterly fantastic)
I can’t wait for you to hear this!
Love, Kim xo

This was an awesome conversation. As I listened I related deeply and felt healing about my own business and the fears I’ve had especially this past year.
This is so great to hear! I hope it helps you, this last year has been tough on so many. It has forced us to face things we may have been shutting down for quite some time. Sending my love to you as you face it all ? xoxo
Omg this had me pumped all day, mainly because I’ve always wanted to be called Thor (after my best horse) and now know that I’m not alone! So many learnings in this episode on a wide variety of issues. A must listen, thanks Kim and Tarzan
Thank you so much Thor for your love! So glad you enjoyed it ?
