I never planned for this life; not the business, not the freedom, not the ability to work while my kids are at school and be present for every moment that matters. If you had asked me years ago, I would've told you I’d be teaching in a classroom until retirement. But today, on my birthday, I’m reflecting on the fact that the life I didn’t plan ended up being so much better than the one I thought I wanted. In this episode, I’m sharing the moment that changed everything, the mindset that got me here, and a birthday pep talk for anyone who’s wondering if their next chapter could be better than they imagine.
