The Trailblazer's Guide To College Admissions

24. Learning How to Trust Yourself on a Winding Career Path with Gina Knox


Listen Later

It’s never too early to have goals. But it’s also never too late to change your mind or try something new. It’s so important to trust yourself enough to know that whatever path you choose to follow is the right one for you – as long as you let go of your fear of failure and really listen and follow your gut. 

 

In this episode, I am talking to Gina Knox, a money coach for entrepreneurs who need to uplevel their finances and want to reach those big money goals. Gina’s path to success was by no means traditional. Together, we discuss the adventurous journey of Gina’s path thus far, how having trust within yourself will guide you on your journey, as well as taking control and creating the path you personally feel happy pursuing.

 

What We Cover:

  • What is a money coach and how Gina became one
  • Gina’s parents’ reaction to her becoming an au pair in Italy
  • From au pair to entering the pathway of design research
  • Having trust within yourself
  • Advice for parents whose children have unconventional plans
  • Why some people allow invested time to keep them miserable
  • Creating the personality and path you want to embody

 

 

“You really have to be in tune with your thoughts and be open to new ideas. And also be open to how you change. Because we change so much in our teenage years and our early 20s.”  - Gina Knox
