Welcome to my very first podcast episode! Thank you for joining me!

I thought it was fitting to have my dad and sister join me in this episode as I get a lot of questions on why I am the way that I am, why I love to work, and how I became an entrepreneur. I am excited to introduce you to my dad, Earl, and sister, Johan.

In this episode we talk about the phenomenal upbringing I had growing up with my parents. We’ll dive deep into what we learned from our dad and his entrepreneurial spirit. My dad shares how he instilled such a strong work ethic into his three daughters. We’ll also talk about my sock company, Lucky Chuck, and Johan’s Bougie Cattle Company and all the ups and downs it takes to be successful. 

A great takeaway from today’s episode: no matter how bad life gets, if all it takes is money to fix it, you never have a problem!

Lucky Chuck

Here's the truth. Life and business are always going to throw fear your way. But fear doesn't have to stop you. In fact, it can be something incredible.

From Fear to Focus is all about turning that fear into drive, that doubt into determination, and those big ideas into real action. Through my journey of building bold brands like Lucky Chuck and Gypsy Soul and mentoring entrepreneurs who transformed their dreams into thriving businesses, I've learned how to face challenges head on and pivot with purpose.

On this podcast, I'm bringing you real talk, actionable strategies and inspiring stories to help you stop spinning your wheels and start building the life and business you deserve. If you're ready to ditch fear, stay true to your values and focus on what really matters, this is your weekly dose of grit, strategy and straight talk. So grab your boots and your lucky socks, put on your armor and let's get to work.
