Welcome to episode 157! Today’s episode we will dive into what is the difference between being courageous and comfortable. I have a quote on my mirror that says if you are not doing something everyday that scares you then you’re not trying hard enough. I ask you to reflect for a moment Are you courageous? Think about it how would you rate yourself on a scale of 1 – 10. 1 being you live in fear and never step out of your comfort zone. 10 being you are always doing something that scares you. It could be learning new things, maybe jumping on stage and giving a speech or leaving your comfy corporate six figure job to start a business and follow your passion.

Welcome to episode 155! Last week I interviewed Jellaine Dee from Luxx Divine on episode 154. In the interview she spoke passionately about as leaders what’s most important is to know yourself. Know what you want, what do you want to create. Stop doing what everyone else expects of you. When you truly know yourself what you are good at you can overcome anything. Today’s episode we will share a story from Sheryl Sandberg as her message magnified the message from Jellaine on hope, adversity & resilience.

Welcome to episode 152!

Are you born with entrepreneurial genes or are they learned traits? In my opinion the word Entrepreneur is overused and used incorrectly! The other morning, I was having coffee with a friend and at the table beside us was a guy on the phone talking way to loud. I heard him say… I am in between jobs and the moment, I am entrepreneur just waiting for my next BIG Thing!
