The Business of Good

It's my birthday and I'm turning the BIG 5-0!

I never thought turning 50 would hit me quite like this. Sitting on a beach in Jamaica, watching the waves roll in, I found myself deep in reflection—about life, about business, about the things I wish I had known sooner. Some lessons I learned the easy way, but most? They came through the struggles, the pivots, the hard-won moments of growth.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the 10 biggest lessons I’ve learned in 50 years—the ones that shaped who I am today as an entrepreneur, a leader, and a woman building a mission-driven legacy. And because I couldn’t help myself, I had to sneak in one extra lesson that completely changed the way I approach success (and I wish I had learned it decades ago!).

Tune in to hear:
✔️ Why success isn’t about going it alone—and what happens when you finally ask for help
✔️ The one mindset shift that makes failure your greatest teacher (instead of something to fear)
✔️ How saying no more often protects the yeses that truly matter
✔️ Why perfection is killing your progress—and what to do instead
✔️ The truth about making money as a purpose-driven entrepreneur (spoiler: it’s not the enemy of good!)
✔️ And the hard lesson I learned about why ego is the biggest reason businesses fail

If you’ve ever felt like you’re running out of time, like you should have things figured out by now, or like your moment has passed—this episode is for you. Whether you're 30, 40, 50, or beyond, there’s still so much ahead of you. And trust me, the best chapters? They’re the ones you haven’t even written yet.
