In this exchange, I am joined by my friend and guest, Meghan Telpner, to discuss her journey as an entrepreneur. Meghan shares her experience of scaling a successful online program, The Academy of Culinary Nutrition, and her decision to make a major shift in her career. Drawing from her own experience, she offers insights on how to live and lead from the heart, expressing concern about the dependency of businesses on social media platforms like Instagram. Meghan also highlights the importance of health, joyfulness, and engagement in a company's culture. With her recent move away from Instagram, she advocates for a more mindful approach to consuming information and listening to one's own bodily responses. She is currently working on a new course that emphasizes heart-led living and leadership.
