What happens when life throws you challenges that seem insurmountable?

Start a business. 🤣

Sam Vander Wielen, attorney-turned-entrepreneur and author of the upcoming book When I Start My Business, I’ll Be Happy, joins me to discuss how her personal and professional journey has been shaped by resilience, grit, and redefining success.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Why building a business that aligns with your life (and not the other way around) is the key to sustainability
• How to recognize when hustle culture is hurting more than it helps—and what to do about it
• Why it’s critical to separate your identity from your business for long-term success and mental health

If you really want to know what it really takes to build a sustainable online business, this episode is for you.
