Lynn Brown was a typical working mom with two children and a supportive husband. Life was good. Yet, at a point when her career was peaking, and they were coordinating family schedules well, Lynn began to feel that it was not the right place for her to be. Both she and her husband traveled for their respective jobs and they could afford a great nanny to allow for that. She had been worried that her youngest daughter did not seem to be in the best health. The pediatricians found nothing wrong, but we all know a mother’s instinct holds a power over traditional medicine. She and her husband began the conversation of “should she give up her job”. In the end that was her choice. She loved her work, and the lifestyle it afforded. But sometimes we must make choices that are right for ourselves or our families. Her chapter in The Lemonade Stand is about making the most of your beautiful life. We are only given one. Everyone has a different set of circumstances and we are ultimately in the drivers’ seat to steer the course of our life. It may take sacrifice, but often it is our heart, more than our head that should influence our decision.

Today’s podcast with Dani Warren covers how her earlier and young adult years shaped not only her career goals, but how she differentiates herself from her colleagues. When she chose the industry of insurance and financial services her motivation wasn’t solely on commissions. She focused on the people first because she understands the vulnerability clients feel, and lack of understanding of unique circumstances that may dictate certain financial plans. She opened her own office so she could determine what the mission, values, and purpose of her products and services represented. Dani puts the people back into the financial plan and creates long term relationships to guide them through changes in life and protect them like she would family.
