    • Entrepreneurship

In today's soul-stirring episode, we take a personal turn as I recount the influential role my father played in guiding me toward a path in accounting—a decision that spiraled into a career marked by highs, lows, and tough lessons learned.

This episode delves into the heart of making choices that align with our core values, and the importance of resilience and support systems that empower us to pivot toward more fulfilling ventures.
