Tina Tower: Building Her Empire
What happens when you've built a wildly successful business but realize bigger isn't always better? In this episode, Cherie Canning sits down with Tina Tower, a two-time bestselling author and the visionary behind Her Empire Builder—a thriving online course empire with a six-year-old community of thousands. Over 21 years in business, Tina has learned that leading with courage isn't about confidence; it's about feeling the fear and doing it anyway. She shares her journey from scrappy bootstrapping to profitable growth, the pivotal midlife moment that changed everything, and the critical tipping point most growing businesses miss: when saying yes to everything stops working and saying no becomes your superpower. Whether you're an introvert building a visible brand, struggling with boundaries, or questioning whether your current definition of success still serves you, this conversation will shift how you think about growth, profit, and what really matters. Featuring insights on sustainable business, authentic community-building, and why wealthy women change the world.
