Hacking The Chaos

Ep, 3: How to build a business after the death of a child


Listen Later

Sometimes there is no easy way... It's only what you make of it.  

In this episode, Faith discusses her "defining" moment to pursue copywriting and her rocky start. How she overcame a major obstacle that could have sent her spiraling out of control but instead brought her more focus, more persistence and more love. 

The "hand" we're dealt isn't pretty sometimes but it's still our hand. 

As Faith launches into her story Candice is taken aback by the monstrosity that befalls her and is blown away at how Faith continues forward. Never losing hope. never losing sight of the goal and never crumbling under the weight of the "hand" she was dealt. Faith goes into the deep mental aspect of her freelance career, how she "overcame" this hurdle in life and what she wants every woman, every freelancer and every entrepreneur to know.  

Throwing away the outline for episodes 1 & 2... and forging a "new" way.

Candice and I decided to try something different with this episode... a new take on an old design. We're introducing the Pomodoro (or for us the Pomodori) timer. We want our podcast to be filled with useful content, stories and information in bitesize chunks... or in Candice's words, "Not waffling on!" Each week we discuss a topic that's throwing some serious chaos into our lives and likely into your life as well. So take a listen to the new format and let us know what you think. Ready to listen?
