It is often said that you are only as happy as your happiest child. That’s why when parents pay little to no attention to child mental health, you can expect that it will hurt their own lives as well. Victoria Wieck sits down with Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, a trailblazer on a mission to change everyone’s perspective when treating children’s mental health issues. She explains how investing in your kid’s unseen challenges and helping them achieve happiness will lead to positive changes in your professional life. Dr. Roseann also explains how this mindset can transcend into the corporate setting, giving more effort to uplift employees and increase productivity.

Tackling Bezos’ business model, Victoria and Steve also look into how you should take calculated risks, the importance of writing out your business plan as if it were an essay, the four cycles every business goes through, and more. Tune in and discover the growth principles Bezos has used to get to where he is now.

In this episode, Victoria Wieck shares how she built her multimillion-dollar, globally recognized brand. In other words, she explains what it took to start a business with no money, sustain it, then grow it. Victoria’s actionable tips on achieving Success Mindset are:

1) Be curious – curiosity leads to new perspective and new solutions to problems. The common thread between some of the most gifted people, i.e. Mozart, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Einstein, Leonardo DaVinci, Mother Theresa was curiosity.

2) Never give up – commitment and perseverance is an absolute necessity for success. One of Victoria’s favorite quotes on this topic is by a former Prime Minister the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill, “Failure is not fatal and success is not final.”

3) Embrace your failures – there could be no success without many failures.

4) Surround yourself with successful people

5) Let go – let go of things, people, systems, or methods that no longer serve you.

6) Stay positive
