Building a Purposeful Business: Amber Vilhauer's Guide to Authentic Entrepreneurship

Welcome to The Philip Wride Show! In this episode, we’re joined by the incredible Amber Vilhauer, a seasoned entrepreneur whose journey is both inspiring and enlightening. Facing frustration and a "glass ceiling" in 2019, Amber transformed her business approach during COVID by live-streaming without selling, which led to an 80% growth and recognition on the Inc. 5000.

Amber shares her unique pivot towards a more fulfilling business model focused on "Books and Business" under her NGNG Enterprises and how she maintains a balance between professional success and personal life. We dive deep into her strategies for personal and professional alignment, the power of authentic word-of-mouth marketing, and the importance of understanding what truly lights you up.

Amber’s story includes overcoming significant challenges, such as writing her book amidst personal hurdles and redefining her goals after receiving a life-changing diagnosis. Our conversation highlights the profound impact of surrounding yourself with the right people, making strategic business decisions in uncertain times, and embracing self-expression.
