Why Entrepreneurs Choose the Hard Path-  And How It Changes Everything w/ Alli Arruda

In this powerful episode, Brittany sits down with Alli Arruda for a raw and inspiring conversation about the life moments that break you open — and the ones that build you back stronger. Alli shares the story of losing a loved one in August 2004, a moment that shifted everything and pushed her into a chapter of unexpected growth, courage, and reinvention.

From leaving Winnipeg to start over in Toronto, to fighting for a spot in a competitive program, to navigating entrepreneurship during COVID when walking away would’ve been so much easier — Alli opens up about the mindset that carried her through every hurdle.

This episode is for the woman standing at a crossroads, craving a new beginning, and wondering if she’s strong enough to start. (Spoiler: she is.)

Life changes often start with loss — but they don’t end there.

Choosing the harder path is often where the deepest growth happens.

Entrepreneurship is never the easy road — but it’s the most rewarding.

Moving cities, starting new programs, and entering new chapters demands courage.

COVID tested every entrepreneur — and quitting was the easy option many took.

Resilience is a skill you build by doing the thing that scares you.
