Today's episode is all about following your heart and trying new things. So many people, including my school teachers told me I was bound for failure. My dad's friends would tell him that he was CRAZY for letting me build a website for his wine store. But for every single person who doubted my new, crazy, and contemporary endeavors I always had the faith in myself that this is what I was made to do. As you listen to this episode, I want you to think of something you've always wanted to try but due to outside opinions you've never given it a shot... and do it.
Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
