Lessons Learned From An Empowered Entrepreneur with Ciara Stockeland

Have you considered starting your own business? Life’s too short to not embrace your entrepreneurial spirit and see what incredible opportunities come your way because of it! 


In this episode, I am so excited to be joined by Ciara Stockeland. Ciara is a serial entrepreneur, fashion maven, coach, and inspirational speaker. At the age of 14, Ciara created and scaled her first business, the Third Street Acting Company. In 2006, she opened Mamma Mia, a high end maternity boutique. Ciara then continued in retail and opened MODE, an innovative clothing boutique which she franchised nationwide. Most recently, Ciara has launched btqBOX, the first wholesale subscription box for boutique owners. Ciara has been recognized as a Small Business Champion through SCORE and most recently was awarded the Outstanding Franchise Small Business Award.


Throughout this episode, Ciara and I talk about the highs and lows of her lifelong entrepreneurial journey. She describes how she began her entrepreneur career as a child, the rise and fall of her franchised boutique MODE, and how she has bounced back and found success with btqBOX. She talks about the importance of connecting with others, what advice has helped her throughout her career, and how she works with clients so they can level up as an entrepreneur. Ciara has incredible insights and we can all learn something from her experiences.
