🎙️ Today's podcast is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster, but in the best way possible. As we revel in a weekend of Thanksgiving, I wanted to dive into a recording that goes beyond the nuts and bolts of business and delves into the softer side of the entrepreneurial journey. Running a brick and mortar business is no stroll in the park for the faint of heart or mind. In this episode, I'm opening up and sharing my top 10 affirmations—the mantras that keep me grounded and fueled for the marathon that is running a brick and mortar business. Because let's face it, it's not a sprint; it's a full-on marathon. Don't mind the softer voice—it's not a sign of diminished passion; it's a testament to the depth of emotion behind these affirmations. Get ready for a heartfelt episode complete with stories that remind me, and hopefully you, of the profound gratitude we have as business owners. 🌟 Referred to podcast with Lindsey Robison Did you love today’s podcast? 🙌 Take a screenshot and share it to your IG stories.
