On this episode of Conversations with #AskAsh, I’m joined by Juan Alvarado, personal and professional development coach. I’ve admired Juan’s intellect, values, and personal drive to help others reach their purpose in life. Personally, Juan has helped me become a better leader through the strength finders assessment as I was transitioning to a new position and team in my career. This episode uncovers self-motivation, why a leader’s role isn’t to make his team happy, the importance of understanding with your team, and so much more!

I don’t know about you but entrepreneurship can be as unpredictable and unstable as a 3 legged chair. You know what I mean? In this episode, we’re talking less tech and systems and getting a glimpse into the personal side of business. One of my mantra’s that I live by: The Power of Pivot. It’s the ability to remain flexible and agile so you can know how and when to make the necessary decisions. Take a listen as I unpeel the layers of how I pivot in life and business.
