Hello friends! In today’s episode I’m both celebrating a significant dual milestone in my life and business: turning 40 and my 10-year journey in the online industry. It’s an exclusive reflection of the milestones I’ve been able to reach and the lessons I’ve learned along the way.  If you’re looking to build your brand and business I’ll share the value in making bold moves, even when faced with obstacles. You’ll also learn the value of being a contrarian and setting trends instead of following the crowd.  Tune in for all the gems on reaching a decade of success in the influencer industry!
