Alyssa took a leap of faith and left her career in education after opening a fashion boutique. This boutique originally started seemingly as a pipe dream. But with the power of the community she built in a Facebook group, she was able to exceed even her own wildest dreams in the form of INSANE sales. Less than a year later she opened a store front and now she is talking about expanding her boutiques' offering to include clothing for men, as well as opening other locations in the future. This episode embodies what can happen when you learn to embrace being different, lean into your authenticity, and let it guide you to pursue what you love.
