Ready to journey through time, perseverance, and the path to success? We're thrilled to introduce Arlene Zizza, the brains behind Zizza Highway Services, as she shares her inspiring entrepreneurial journey. Together, we'll dissect the tricky concept of time, how it seems to stand still in moments of adversity and how it races during moments of triumph. We'll also explore the grit and determination that fuels persistence, taking a leaf from the book of none other than New York City real estate tycoon, Barbara Corcoran.

Brace yourself for a story of defiance that turned the tables during a pivotal meeting with a corporate giant. We'll delve into the moment of truth when we stood ground, earning the respect and support of everyone in the room. Reflecting on personal experiences, we'll discuss the cultural challenges and family expectations faced while pursuing higher education and the importance of a balanced perspective. Shifting gears, we'll then step into the family dynamics of Arlene's business, showcasing the highs and lows, the growth-driven conflicts and the core belief in learning through failure. Let's break down the barriers, inspire, and grow together!
