Why Hitting Rock Bottom Is Your Greatest Opportunity

EP.877

If you didn’t already know, in the 2008 recession, Lori and I hit rock bottom financially. It was an extremely challenging time, but looking back, we realize it was one of the best things that could have ever happened to us as it forced us to completely rethink our lives and make essential mindset shifts. I am so grateful for that experience because it helped me become the unapologetic person I am today. In this episode, I share all the steps I took to bounce back from rock bottom stronger than ever. If you’re feeling down or need some old-fashioned motivation, this is for you!
