#49: Playing The Long Game: Digital Social Hour with Sean Kelly

What happens when your sense of identity is intertwined with your company to the point where stepping down feels like losing a part of yourself? That's the journey I embarked on after my nine-figure exit. This week, I sat down with Sean Kelly on "Digital Social Hour" to share the personal struggles I faced in the aftermath of stepping down. I had to rediscover my purpose and learn to appreciate the beauty and balance in life.


Understanding the significance of masterminds, mentors, and the right circle of influence can be a game-changer. I give a peek behind the scenes of my journey, from attending masterminds that altered my life to building a team and facing the challenges of relinquishing power.


Through a personal, life-threatening incident, I want to remind you of the power of appreciating the simple moments in life and the significance of cultivating gratitude. Join us on this enlightening journey that challenges us to reevaluate our definitions of success.



Highlights:


“And I think that's what people really want. They want authenticity, they want somebody that's done it.”


"I think the biggest thing that I've learned is that you have to be willing to take risks.”


"Nothing bugs me more than some self-help guru that is like 22 years old and never done it.
