[0:00] Have you ever experienced a challenge that you've overcome? What about the skills you've learned in the process of mastering something in your business, or your personal life? Do the people around you ask questions about something that comes easily to you?

[0:17] If so, you'll definitely want to stick around as we dive into this final part of our recession-proofing your business miniseries. Today, we're talking about teaching what you know to others, and how it can quickly become a profit center in your business.

[1:13] Over the past five episodes, we've been building up to today's lesson. We've been exploring ways to use what you already have to build a stronger business. While this series was created to inspire and give you tons of ways to diversify your business during the pandemic since so many of you had to do business differently, the ideas we've talked about are absolutely evergreen.

[2:19] What does teaching what you know really mean?

[2:23] Well, at its most basic teaching what you know, really means one of two things. The first is that you can turn a mess you've had in your life into your message, as my mentor Dean grazioso, he would say, let me give you an example.
