Today, we are joined by Nafissa Shireen for the second time. For those of you who don’t know, Nafissa had been a featured guest on my show way back in 2015 entitled Living With Your Business with Nafissa Shireen.

Nafissa will be sharing with us the importance of having a life that works for us and building a business that fits around that. “Life is about us. It’s not about the money. It’s not about the systems. Although those are really important things; you need them. But none of that’s going to work unless you get really free on the inside first. That internal freedom is what allows you to build that." she said.

Tangible action steps to help you define yourself:

Allow yourself to have the thoughts that you would maybe shut down. Start to ask yourself, “What if?”Allow yourself to let life show you. Allow yourself to get into situations or make a decision where you can say, “I love this!”Allow yourself to experiment and try things.

Take the time to determine the kind of life you want to live then start looking at your business and other areas of your life and learn to shape the life you have into the life that you want. Listen in to this amazing interview with Steve Kidd and Nafissa Shireen on Thriving Entrepreneur.
