What We Cover in This Episode:
Today, I celebrate 8 years in business, and in true realtalk fashion, I’m keeping it REAL so you don’t have to repeat it.
In this episode I’m honest about:
- Following copy-and-paste frameworks I didn’t believe in
- Burning myself out where one day I slept at 9PM and woke up at 6PM the next day
- Hose I use to joke, “I’m a broken Asian – I don’t understand numbers” (until a mentor called me in)
- Thinking MORE is better (Spoiler alert: it’s not)
AND – there’s so much to celebrate:
- I’m having the best year in business YTD both in revenue and profit margin (despite the chaos). It’s weird to feel both anger, and gratitude simultaneously
- Been working with more companies to create courses, curriculum and training that is fun and humorous. I’m going to even bring in some Muay Thai (more on this later)
- I won first place in my SCMSDC pitch competition, which I now have on video that you can watch on YouTube
- Supporting over 14k+ in 58 different countries through 1:1 coaching, my LinkedIn courses and partnerships with 30+ universities
- 300+ client testimonials
