031- The Birthday Episode: My Previous Business Failures & 4 Life Lessons That Contribute to My Success

<p>It’s my birthday! So, this episode is going to be more personal, a solo episode where I want to talk about more of what's led me to where I am today and the lessons I've learned throughout my 35 years of life that continue to contribute to my success. </p> <p>In this episode, I talk a bit about my previous failed business attempts from starting an online magazine to investing almost $22,000 in a vending machine business that ultimately did not succeed.</p> <p>I'm also sharing key life lessons that have helped me thus far on my life journey and hope you can find some inspiration to help you on your path too.</p> <p>I said that my word for this year was “Fearlessness” but it also is “Creation”. Never have I felt more inspired and filled with hope, nurturing and growing life within and all around me. I’m in a season of expansion and my dreams are literally coming true.</p> <p>I couldn’t be more appreciative and happy with what is and what’s to come.
