Women of Impact How to BREAK Expectations, REMOVE Family Pressures, & Take CONTROL of Your Life | Payal Kadakia
How many times has fear kept you in the place where you work or where you live? So many women (and men) are fearful of making moves that change careers or change the relationships in their lives, but why? How are you supposed to break free from the ‘I can’t afford to’ traps or the ‘this is what’s expected of me’ traps?
Today’s guest, Payal Kadakia is the founder and executive chairman of Classpass. She’s a professional dancer and choreographer and entrepreneur from the corporate world that knows the pressure of living with multiple identities. She is sharing her experience and lessons of what it took to successfully merge her different identities and align with her North Star. LifePass, is the book she wrote to help you do the same.
Get empowered, walk through the discomfort of life with confidence and a plan to change your fear into a life you want to live for everyday.
