In this episode of the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I dive into a topic inspired by a comment on a recent Facebook post. While someone admired my life and career, it gave me pause and reminded me of the hard work, challenges, and sacrifices that have shaped my journey.

I share my personal story, from my stressful career as an event planner to becoming a stay-at-home mom, to launching a business that aligns with my passions and values. Along the way, I talk about the myths surrounding "overnight success" and highlight the importance of pairing big dreams with consistent, and sometimes messy action.

If you’ve ever wished for someone else’s life or success, this episode is for you. Let’s pull back the curtain on what it really takes to create a life and career you’re proud of, and why progress will always matter more than perfection.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

The untold challenges behind success stories.
The power of taking imperfect, courageous steps toward your goals.
Why dreaming big must always be followed by consistent action.
