This is a really important episode for me, because Sheila and I were able to talk about the price of living a life that looks perfect from the outside, but is a total mess inside. We talk about letting go of the illusion, building confidence from your core, and finding success as a result. When this ‘ideal’ life crumbled for Sheila she found herself a single mom barley making a living. (Boy, can I relate!) Sheila decided things needed to change and she went to work building confidence at her core, which changed everything for the better. An entrepreneur since 2008, Sheila learned that one’s level of confidence directly impacts the success of their marketing, visibility, connecting, and making money. Sheila now spends her time helping entrepreneurs build the level of confidence they need to build the business they desire.
