What would you say to your "January 2024" self if you could go back in time?

In this deeply personal episode, I share my reflections on the past year, both my triumphs and challenges, and why “Build It Anyway” is my mantra for 2025.

You’ll hear about my journey from barely scraping by with two clients to achieving my dream of consistent $10K months, and why I ultimately decided to dismantle that business to pursue something even more aligned with my values and vision. Get ready to feel inspired, reflective, and motivated to tackle your own goals for 2025, no matter how uncertain the path ahead seems.

Topics I Cover:

• Lessons from Reflection: I share how a simple LinkedIn post about advising my January 2024 self sparked a deep reflection on the year’s successes, failures, and unexpected lessons.

• Behind the Scenes of Entrepreneurship: Insights from major entrepreneurs reveal the hidden costs of success, like health struggles and intense stress, which inspired me to reframe my approach to business and life.

• The Value of Pursuing Goals Anyway: Even though I didn’t find the house my family dreamed of, the search led to unforgettable experiences, like a life-changing road trip and moments of awe at the Grand Canyon.

• Why You Should “Build It Anyway”: Why I believe you should pursue your current business or life goals, even if they’re unsure they’re the “right” goals, because of the invaluable lessons learned along the way.

• Personal Growth Through Business: Reflecting on my business journey, I emphasize the importance of resilience, boundaries, and alignment, which shaped my new vision for 2025.

This episode reminds us that the greatest growth often comes from stepping into the unknown and taking action without guarantees of success. My story is a testament to the value of resilience, reflection, and building a life and business that aligns with your values.

As you look ahead to 2025, ask yourself: What would you tell your January 2024 self? And then use that wisdom to fuel your courage and clarity in the coming year. Let’s make 2025 a year of purpose, bold decisions, and meaningful growth together.
