Embodied CEO

What Losing $19K Overnight Taught Me About Resilience

Episode Description from the Publisher

In today's episode, I share the one trait I believe separates entrepreneurs who build lasting success from those who don't: how fast you get back up when something doesn't work. I open up about a recent scare in my own business, where a white-label client deal turned into an unexpected $19,000 chargeback, and how I worked through the frustration to keep moving forward. I also talk about the reality of leading a team and managing payroll, and how gratitude helps me stay grounded through the hard days. There's no easy path to the business and life you want, so you have to pick your hard. If you've ever questioned whether you should keep going after something fails, this one's for you.
