Have you ever thought you were headed in one direction, only to find yourself on a completely different path? That's exactly what happened to me at the Modern Elder Academy (M.E.A.) as part of a leadership accelerator program. I went in expecting a DEEP dive into business, but what I found was something far more profound: a complete shift in the way I see personal growth and transformation.
This isn’t your typical “business as usual” episode—it’s my personal reflection into how we grow, transform, and evolve as entrepreneurs and individuals. I’ll be sharing personal stories (including that one time I went on a three-hour hike in high tops) and practical takeaways that you can apply to your business and life today.
This episode is my way of keeping a promise I made years ago: to share what I’ve learned so you can avoid some of the mistakes I’ve made and grow your business with clarity and purpose!
