Success isn’t a finish line. It’s a long, unpredictable road filled with setbacks, small wins, and lessons along the way.
After completing a long-awaited renovation for my business, La Cuisine, I felt uneasy with the word success as people congratulated me. The glossy finish doesn’t tell the full story. This journey took seven years of struggles, delays, and setbacks that tested my patience and perseverance. I see this milestone as a réussite, a hard-earned achievement, but real success? That’s still unfolding.
In this episode, I reflect on what success really means, the weight of language, and the unseen challenges behind every big moment. What if true success isn’t about the big wins at all but about the resilience it takes to keep going?
