The Art of Dreaming Big (and Actually Doing It!)

Today we're talking about those big, juicy dreams you hold in your heart—the ones you might even call "pipe dreams." I'm diving into how the amazing women from Season One of "Beyond Business" have inspired me, sharing their stories of taking those crucial first steps, even when they didn't know where they were going! We'll chat about Gabby's unexpected path, Chantel's pivot when her dream almost died, Michelle getting a "taste" of her dream, and how we can learn to recognize those vital "doorways" in our lives. I’ll also get real about protecting your dream from well-meaning loved ones, and how even a huge setback like cancer couldn't kill my counseling dream. Plus, we'll explore the hidden power of waiting seasons and why pivoting, like Lisa did, can lead to even bigger, better dreams you never saw coming. It’s all about nurturing that dream until it truly blooms!
