The entrepreneurial journey is a winding one and you sometimes arrive at a different destination or achieve a different result other than the one you planned when starting out. Business requires you to go through the learning process and experiment over and over again in order to overcome challenges, improve, and succeed.
This episode is the Season 2 finale and I wanted to share with you my experience in creating a homemade strawberry jam. This culinary project I took on this week has great relevance for us entrepreneurs and it taught me lessons in commitment, perseverance, and valuing process over results.
In the process of making jam, I realized that I was committed to achieving my vision despite not knowing exactly how it would happen. This adventure raised questions that are relevant to consider for business: What’s in season for you? What life outcomes do you desire? What goals do you have for your business? Determine the answers to these questions, assemble your resources, decide on an approach, and you’ll surely reap the sweet rewards.
Season 2 is a wrap! This has been an amazing season with wonderful guests and topics that are truly worth listening to. Please check out any missed episodes and we’ll see you in Season 3! Until then, keep thriving!

- Sometimes in business, you don’t always get the yield that you hope for, but you learn in the process.
