What would you do if one day the life you worked so hard to build was suddenly gone?

Well that’s exactly what happened to my guests on this week's episode of the Own YOUR Future Podcast with Chris and Lori Harder.

From climbing the corporate ladder, LOSING IT ALL and then going all in on building Lori’s brand, Chris and Lori’s story is a powerful example of why starting over is actually the greatest place you can be because it’s a blank slate of POSSIBILITIES...

Today, they’re successful entrepreneurs, podcasters, authors each on their own and combined they’re the ULTIMATE POWER COUPLE who not only live and work together, but they do it with a whole lotta LOVE & RESPECT! They own several multi-million dollar businesses & give back to the community in a hugely impactful way.

And even with all that success, they still have their STRUGGLES, like we all do. In fact, Chris and Lori open up about something deeply personal they’re struggling with right now and how they’re dealing with it.

I can’t wait for you to dive into this HEARTFELT and inspirational episode! You’ll learn:

✅The difference between a CAREER mindset vs ENTREPRENEUR mindset

✅ What to do if the WORST CASE scenario happens (spoiler alert: you’re probably already in it)

✅Why RECESSIONS are a great time to get started

✅How to support yourself through FEAR when you’re just starting out

✅Why security is just an ILLUSION and how it’s keeping you stuck

✅How to become a POWERHOUSE salesperson (even if you hate sales!)

Make sure you stay until the end when Lori asks Dean a question that no one has ever asked him before…

This episode will TRANSFORM your mindset and have you inspired to take bold, uncomfortable action to create the life you truly desire… not the version someone else gave you.

I'd love to hear from you! What was your biggest takeaway from this episode?
