Building BEFORE You’re Ready with Sarah D’Arcy

In this episode of Voted Least Likely, I’m joined by celebrity stylist Sarah D’Arcy for a conversation about building something of your own — even when you don’t feel fully ready.

Sarah shares how she grew her styling business while still working a corporate job, navigating uncertainty, and the quiet belief that something bigger was possible. What struck me most in this conversation is how much of entrepreneurship is built in the in-between seasons.

We talk about:

- Building your business alongside a full-time job
- The mentors who shaped Sarah’s early career — and why encouragement at the right time changes everything
- Why you never truly feel “ready” to leap into entrepreneurship
- The uncertainty that comes with betting on yourself
- Staying humble and grounded as the landscape of business changes

Sarah speaks candidly about the self-doubt, the pivots, and the discipline required to create longevity — not just visibility. This conversation is a reminder that success is rarely loud in the beginning. It’s often built quietly, in small rooms, before anyone else sees it.

If you’re in the middle of building something — while juggling work, responsibilities, or fear — this episode will resonate deeply.

As always, thank you for being here.
