In this episode, I share my excitement about recording the audiobook for Becoming Boss Minded and the journey it took to get there. I reflect on the mistakes and lessons I’ve learned in business, from managing a team to learning how to pay myself properly. I talk about the power of being direct, both in my coaching style and in how I’ve helped others grow. I also open up about personal struggles, like dealing with COVID and family issues, while finishing my first book, and how staying committed helped me push through tough times.

I then introduce the Boss Minded Framework, a five-step process to help people take smart, aligned action in business. The steps include desiring more, defining the cost, finding your edge, creating your version of success, and finally, taking your seat. I explain how each step plays a role in building a strong foundation and mindset for entrepreneurship. I also tease some upcoming events and the May 22 release of the book, encouraging listeners to join the waitlist for special launch-day perks.
