In this episode, you’re going to get to know two of your hosts a little better: Sarah Reynolds and Vija Williams.

Yes, we’ve all built big businesses and even bigger lives. But we’re not going to lie or sugarcoat the stories of how we got here. It wasn’t easy for any of us, and if someone tells you that personal or professional growth IS easy, they’re probably up to something. So, we’re going to get real, raw, and vulnerable about how we got to where we are today — the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Learning to lead during a crisis is sort of like keeping a spare tire in the back of your car — you don’t want to have to use it, but you really don’t want to need it and not have it. Right now, a lot of us are pulled over to the side of the road, changing the tires on our businesses and personal lives, and we want to help you get through this crisis in a way that supports you, your team, and your family.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s that you can’t predict when your world (or the collective world) is going to fall apart — but when you have big dreams and a big vision of your future (or you’re working on a podcast), that can’t just get put on pause indefinitely when things start to go bad. So, today, we discuss how the health crisis affected our business and personal lives and what we’ve been doing to pivot and adapt. It’s been a real struggle, none of us had a plan for this, but we’ve been able to put structures in place that allow us to keep our businesses thriving and stay connected to the people who matter most.

We’re kicking off the launch of Empire Builders with a week full of episodes so that we can introduce you to your four incredible hosts — Seychelle Van Pool, Vija Williams, Sarah Reynolds, and Wendy Papasan — and the foundational principles of empire building.

This is also your invitation to join a community of people who will support each other in achieving everything: thriving businesses, happy marriages, loving families, and lives worth living. We know the path is long and full of obstacles, we’re all still walking this path ourselves, but we also know that you can make it over every single obstacle in your way if you have a good model to follow and support. We all needed each other to get where we are today, and now we want to help you.

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
