329: Bound by Business: Jessica Harling - Her Personal Journey Through Family Business – Part 2
Today With Jessica Harling:
Welcome to Window Treatments For Profit! Jessica is back for part two of our conversation, and today we're flipping the script. Instead of focusing on what Jessica learned from interviewing others in her 'Bound by Business' series, we're diving into her own personal journey working in a family business for years. Jessica gets vulnerable about her experiences, sharing the four key things she learned from reflection—from recognizing when you're being supported more than you think, to the stories we create in our minds about family members' intentions. We'll explore her decision to step away and forge her own path, the importance of having real conversations instead of making assumptions, and how to appreciate family members for who they are and what they bring. This is honest, real talk about family dynamics, personal growth, and the courage it takes to make tough decisions when business and family collide. Plus, Jessica shares that she's ramping up for round two of the Bound by Business series! Join us for a candid conversation filled with wisdom, self-reflection, and invaluable insights for anyone navigating complex family relationships in business.
