I wasted a lot of time thinking I was ready when I wasn’t, and that led to frustration, burnout, and spinning my wheels. What changed? I got in rooms with people who could call out my blind spots. I invested in coaches and programs that forced me to level up. I did the inner work—facing fears, healing money trauma, and getting my mindset right. Mindset + Energy Are EVERYTHINGSuccess isn’t just about strategy (though, duh, that’s important). It’s about your mindset and energy.
