Quotes from the episode on finding your path and building a company:

“Had I taken the safe route, I think that would have given me a general sense of discomfort with my life, because I actually didn’t find out my potential.” – Melissa

“Failures equal experience. Just let yourself keep failing and failing again. You are who you are, and when you fail, you’re still you. You’re not any less worthy.” – Melissa

“It’s very difficult to be effective at running a company while also being best friends with everybody. You have to make unpopular calls” – Dan

As always this episode is brought to you by Soltara Healing Center.
