Back in college, Monica Byers wrote a business plan about a woman-owned trucking company for a school project. Driven by her entrepreneurial spirit and a few years of transportation experience, Monica ended up turning the hypothetical project into a reality and started Sugar Creek Transportation in the mid-2000s, which is now a very successful 8-figure trucking company.

In this episode, Monica shares her story of turning her dream into a reality and the struggles she had to overcome to get where she is today. In the midst of building her company, she went through a divorce and had to fight to keep the company she worked so hard to build from the ground up. 

Monica shares what it is like to be a woman in the trucking industry and learning to find her balance between feminine and masculine energy. She offers advice to anyone struggling to realize their potential and find their way in this world and encourages us all to do the work to shift our mindset away from thinking we can’t accomplish what we desire.
