Big things are waiting for you on the other side of uncertainty. In this episode, I sit down with Alex Bradberry, Owner and Founder of the Sparkle Bar, a first-of-its-kind, all-inclusive makeup and beauty studio founded in Scottsdale, Arizona! Not only has the Sparkle Bar been part of some of the biggest moments of my life, but it is actual proof that you can make your big dreams come to life—even when life doesn’t go as planned. Alex shares how she stayed committed to her vision during seasons of uncertainty, including how she navigated a Stage 3 lung cancer diagnosis, and the powerful new perspective she gained as a leader and business owner. We also dive into the magic that happens when we embrace delayed gratification, when the right time to take a leap of faith and go all-in is, and how to tap into your self-confidence as a mother, partner, and entrepreneur.
