Building a successful business does not look the same for everyone. The illusion that it should has led many of my clients down paths of frustration and anxiety. If running your own business makes you feel more trapped than you did in your day job, I might suggest that you are doing it wrong.

Risk demands faith. And faith is what activates God’s providence in our lives. Go boldly into new spaces that take you out of your comfort zone. One thing I know for sure, God is ready and waiting to meet you there.
