A big part of building a successful company is giving yourself grace when you make mistakes and never using its present to judge its potential. Never minimize where you can go because of where you are today.  In today's episode, I'm joined by the talented Sonia James Pennington, a highly creative arts and entertainment CEO and Juris Doctorate from Temple University's Beasley School of Law. She owns, operates and manages for-profit and non-profit organizations. Sonia owns, runs, and manages a dance competition (currently on its 20th season this year), manages and co-owns a beer garden with her husband, owns "That Which Connects," her non-profit, and is the mother of two beautiful teenagers.  Throughout our conversation, Sonia talks about her passion for inspiring people and how she navigated her duality: her analytic side that took her down the path of Law and her creative side that made her a passionate dance educator and choreographer. We also discuss Sonia's archetype and value words, her fears, lessons learned in entrepreneurship, her views on brands' growth, and so much more. Tune in to episode 65 of The Brand Therapist and learn more about Sonia's two passions.   In This Episode, You Will Learn: A bit about Sonia's multiple projects (2:10)Sonia's love for Barbies and how the dolls instilled her creativity (4:20)About Sonia's fears (8:00)Relying on mentors and peers to become a bit better every day (10:50)Sonia talks about her duality.
