On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a very exclusive treat. This is a vulnerable, and strategy rich conversation where I was the one being interviewed by my friend, super entrepreneur Amy Porterfield. She asks me how I began CLS, my actual first steps, how I overcame imposter syndrome, and the truth about entrepreneurship and what it takes to be successful. We talk about how your comfort zone is a death sentence and the actual steps required for leaving your 9 to 5 to pursue your dream.

Stepping away from a lucrative job on Wall Street to chart my entrepreneurial journey, didn't come without its fair share of challenges and uncertainties. Yet, the transformative power of embracing change and stepping out of comfort zones was a game-changer. In this episode, Amy Porterfield and I tackle the often-ignored risks of playing safe and the crippling fear of failure that holds us back from our dreams. You'll hear us talk about the power of celebrating others' wins and the dangers of the comparison trap. Our conversation takes a deeper dive into the world of entrepreneurship, highlighting the value of action and subtracting activities that don't serve our goals.
