I am so excited to bring you today’s interview with TaVona Denise, an Atlanta-based business accelerator, speaker, and life coach whose viewpoints, perspectives, and enthusiasm to create change and help others so closely align with my own. Certified in life, weight, and wellness coaching, TaVona is the author of Unstoppable Success: How to Finally Create the Body, Business and Lifestyle You Want, and the founder of Thrive Network. She is also fully committed to helping new entrepreneurs get past fear and overwhelm to successfully launch their businesses without burning out in the process, and, as you will discover, she is a true badass who brings the fire in our conversation here today.

I begin as I do with all guests these days by finding out how TaVona is doing with all that is, and has been, going on in the world for the past year, and then we delve into her journey to where she is now, including what she was like as a child. We then dive into her penchant for breaking rules in business, the impact of worrying about others’ opinion, the story of her own massive success and overwhelm, and the power of following your own unique truth. TaVona also describes the value she finds in coaching, her ‘Launch Optimization Model’, her self-care process, and her musical experience. She concludes our conversation by offering a glimpse into her ‘Sold Out Services’ initiative and how it can help entrepreneurs crush their launches. TaVona Denise is one powerful individual with a vast amount of experience and wisdom to share, and that’s precisely what she does here today with her trademark abundance of conviction and passion.
