Born to Thrive Podcast

I want to talk about finances in today's episode but tell a story around it to drive the message home. I bought my first car when I was in high school and that Toyota Camry got me everywhere and was perfect for me up until very recently with regular costs to maintain it and Chewie. I've been planning to buy a new car for a little awhile now, finally pulled the trigger, and… felt nothing. Listen in as I explain more!

(0:22) Talking Finances

(1:20) My First Car

(3:30) The Camry Was Costing Me More

(8:35) Other People’s Respect

I was at a Buffbunny retreat recently and one of our many amazing conversations sparked this episode.

You were probably told as a child that giving up meant quitting and that was the only way you could fail (or maybe you hear and believe that today). There's some truth to this but there is also some nuance we need to talk about. As I've started a new chapter in business, this is something I struggled heavily with for a few months before coming to the realization I did. Listen in and found out what I mean!

It's easy to let what others think about you dictate your thoughts and actions. I've definitely been there!
