Ellen, would you say that that is your why as what you do?
What gets you out of bed in the morning?
Oh, always.
And I'll just expand a little bit.
I always knew, I come from a line of entrepreneurs.
So I always knew that I was going to want
to learn something new and be curious
and all of that that goes with it.
I just thought for a long time
it was going to be in my former career
because I was in financial services
and it was serving people in that way.
But it was just the opportunity to work
with my mentor one-on-one that dramatically changed
why I wanted to do this.
And it was just piecing that all together
because when I hired him the first time, as I said
I also wasn't the brightest person
because I didn't rehire him
but that was the journey I needed to take
because when I get to work with clients
I tell them I'm shortening the gap for you
to always understand whether we're reading,
doing a course, working with mentors,
working with accountability, that it's the journey
and that really becomes the why.
