Welcome back to Small Business School! In this powerful and heart-centered conversation, I’m joined by the incredible Anna Lozano — entrepreneur, mentor, and host of The Prosperity Playground podcast. Anna shares her inspiring journey of creating, growing, and selling her first company (Love Powered Co.) and how she’s now redefining success through alignment, intuition, and energetics. We talk about what it really looks like to build a business that feels as good as it performs — one that supports your energy, lifestyle, and purpose instead of draining it. 

Key topics covered:

• Anna’s entrepreneurial evolution, from corporate life to network marketing to building and selling Love Powered Co.
• What it truly means to build a business that matches your energy, values, and season of life
• What happens when you’ve “made it,” but you’re still figuring out who you are next
• Why stillness and space are secret weapons for creativity and clarity
• How to move from force and burnout to ease and alignment
• Creating a new definition of success, one that’s deeply personal, intentional, and sustainable

Anna’s story is an inspiring reminder that success isn’t about how hard you grind — it’s about how deeply you align. When you stop trying to keep up with everyone else’s version of success and start tuning into your own rhythm, everything changes. You’ll not only build a business that thrives but a life that feels truly joyful, free, and abundant.
