The people we surround ourselves with can either help or hinder our success in life. They’re the ones who provide support and offer words of encouragement when we need it.
And they’re not afraid to challenge us when we’re stuck.
Our support system helps us see our strengths and acknowledge our weaknesses because they know that true growth comes from action, not perfection.
Today on The Bridge to Fulfillment Ⓡ, Blake welcomes Anne Marie Anderson, a three-time Emmy Award-winning broadcaster, keynote speaker and author. Taking bold moves in her career has helped her become one of the most experienced female play-by-play announcers in the country. Her book, Cultivating Audacity, shares how she found her “front row” support system and thus, gained the confidence to create change and ultimately, find true growth and success.
