Navigating Adversity and the Lessons I've Learned

In this episode, Toni takes a look at the theme of overcoming challenges and resilience. Reflecting on the common thread of resilience found in all of her interviews, Toni considers the importance of having a strong support network, asking for help when needed, and sharing both challenges and successes with others. She also emphasizes the significance of checking in on others and being open about struggles.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Overcoming challenges and facing adversity requires resilience, which is a common theme among all the podcast guests. Having a reliable network of people around you is crucial for getting through tough times. Asking for help, even before things get dire, can prevent further challenges and make it easier to navigate difficult situations. It's important to share your challenges with others, not just the successes, to create a supportive community. Once you've overcome challenges, share your experiences to help and support others who may be going through similar situations. BEST MOMENTS "Shit always happens, doesn't it? And it's about how we handle it." "Resilience isn't always just dealing with it when the shit hits the fan or dealing with it on your own." "No one is a success on their own." "If you have a solution to a problem, you've made it through a challenging time, you've got a simpler, faster, easier, better way of doing something or a solution." "It's very easy when people are placed on a pedestal or they have a certain level of success to think they don't have these challenges too." HOST BIO Toni's journey defies the norm. Raised with a strong work ethic and a traditional career path in mind, she initially pursued a corporate job in HR after earning her degree. However, in 2015, everything changed when she attended a property training seminar. Little did she know that this event would ignite a profound passion for property investment. With her husband Chris, Toni raised millions in joint venture finance, creating a multi-million-pound property portfolio. But her story doesn't stop there. By the age of 33, she left her HR job behind to empower others in building their successful property businesses. Toni's passion for public speaking led her to become a world record holder. Beyond the accolades, she sees it as a calling to educate and inspire.
