Episode description

If you've ever been rejected, felt insecure, underestimated, or unsure whether you're "good enough" to achieve your dreams, this conversation will show you how a positive mindset and betting on yourself can turn rejection into redirection that leads to an even better opportunity.

In this powerful and inspirational episode, I'm sitting down with Hala Taha—an entrepreneur who hosts one of the top podcasts in the world (Young and Profiting) and built a media empire (YAP Media)—to uncover the story behind her rise from an unpaid intern to one of the most influential voices in podcasting and media. 

Hala's journey to success certainly wasn't linear. She's been fired, rejected, overlooked, and discouraged, but with pure resilience and determination, she used each setback to sharpen her skills, build her brand, and expand her vision.

You'll hear how she used manifestation and affirmations to break through imposter syndrome and continued stacking skills to build a thriving media empire. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or simply ready for your next chapter, Hala's story proves that you don't have to wait for permission to succeed; you just need self-belief and a positive mindset to get started.
