Obstacles will come and go throughout life, but it is always about how you respond to them that matters the most. If Brenda didn't learn to overcome what was thrown her way, she wouldn't be able to tell the story of being a professional stylist for the last five years.

This is only the tip of the iceberg though as Brenda has been able to achieve much success within the industry as her work ethic truly speaks for itself. She prides herself on wanting all of clients to stand out and approach things from a different perspective that they haven't adopted before.

Tune in to episode 173 as she shares some details around publishing 'Styled By Independence', reflects on pivoting from financial services to the styling industry and much more!

“Talent isn’t born, it’s boosted.” -Claire Chandler

It is no surprise that when Claire founded the company in 2013, she decided to name it Talent Boost. She truly believes that we are all unique in our own way, but it is up to us to to tap into that area of our life. However, once you tap into it, it is about doing what is needed to amplify it and not sell yourself short.

This can also translate to the corporate world as many times larger organizations are simply in their own way and not doing everything they can to retain their best talent. Well, that is where their framework comes in to play - because while it is uniform through and through, the steps can be customized to each organization. 

Tune in to episode 172 as Claire reflects on leaving corporate America back in 2011, explains how culture is foundational to success and much more!

Could you imagine from the age of nine having so many pharmaceuticals prescribed to you in an effort to to combat the illnesses you're dealing with? To take it a step further, imagine that these drugs were making you feel so bad that you begin to hide them to convince your parents that you were still taking them.

Well, for Dan there was no need to imagine as this was the harsh reality he was faced with as a young child. He recognized early on that he did not want to become reliant on such things and knew there had to be another way.

So how did moving out to Colorado completely change his lifestyle and allow him to embrace the holistic side of things?

Tune in to episode 166 as Dan gives a full breakdown of the Endocannabinoid System, reflects on wanting to help one million people feel better naturally and much more!
