    Follow the show: It Has to Be Me
    In this episode, Tess interviews Melissa Lanz - award-winning entrepreneur and business coach helping other solo-preneurs achieve financial freedom. Melissa shares the wake-up call that got her to give up the security of a high-paying corporate job for a kitchen-table start-up that she grew into a multi-million dollar company. By making value-guided choices, and focusing on the feelings she wants to have rather than the things she wants to have, Melissa achieved financial success and fulfillment. She insists that “It must be your ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ that frame your story.” Melissa gives practical strategies for blocking out the noise, listening to your intuition, and trusting yourself to overcome doubts, fears, and negative input. She emphasizes the value of strategic planning, personal audits, and investing in the little tasks to build momentum and confidence to stay on track. Then highlights rest, reflection, and leveraging your existing resources as fundamental elements that contribute to productivity. In this conversation, Melissa takes listeners inside the methodical way she guides clients to leverage the resources they already have and take the next three steps toward their goals.

    KEY THINGS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE:
    Stay Close to Your Mission and Values: Melissa explains why making choices that align with your “WHY” lead to success and fulfillment.
    The Fresh 20: Leveraging her internet knowledge, business acumen, and skills as a chef, Melissa built an online meal planning service to fulfill her mission of helping families eat healthy and reduce food waste.
    Plan With What You Have: A firm believer in being scrappy, Melissa helps clients recognize what they already have, and gives them the next three small steps so they can take immediate action.
    Relish the Grunt Work: Melissa shares the value of patience and confidence, and being invested in the process. Making mistakes and learning are a vital part of bringing your vision to life.
    The Power Of Personal Responsibility: Give yourself permission to believe you can do it. Have the courage to trust your intuition, and own the consequences of your actions.
