    3 things I did differently to get here

    Ever feel like your career path should make more sense? Same. In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I went from 14 jobs in 7 industries to building a business, launching a YouTube channel, and securing a spot on RogersTV - without following a traditional route. We’re diving into three game-changing lessons that shaped my journey: - Embracing Career Pivots – Why trying different jobs (and quitting some) was the best thing I ever did. - The Power of Authenticity – How being unapologetically me opened doors I never imagined. - Being ‘Delulu’ on Purpose – Why ignoring the naysayers and believing in big, wild dreams actually works. Tune in for a real talk, bold moves, and a reminder that success isn’t one-size-fits-all.
