Jay Shetty sits down with Payal Kadakia to talk about pursuing passion and overcoming limitations. Success is achieved when you know what your passion is, you learn how to develop that passion, and recognize the hurdles you have to overcome. Success is when you find a solution to solve your problem and then find ways to scale it so others having similar problems can solve theirs too.
