What do you do when the corporate ladder leaves you feeling unfulfilled—but you’re still craving structure, stability, and impact? For Carol, that answer was stepping away from a high-level advertising career, starting a jewelry brand born out of personal grief, and ultimately buying a successful subscription box business that now fuels thousands of women every month. In this episode, Carol shares her winding path to owning Sparkle Hustle Grow, a subscription box and membership community for female entrepreneurs. We talk about the real story behind buying a business (spoiler: it’s not as glamorous as Instagram makes it seem), the role personal development plays in business success, and how masterminding and community support can help you grow faster than any online course. Carol’s Action Steps for the Week: Write down your dream life—what do you really want? Choose 1–2 things from that dream to work toward in the next 6 months. Break down one of those goals into 3 clear, actionable steps you can take this week.
