Genuinely, we could go on and on about her accomplishments, but it's more important for us that you hear the passion in her voice and use this weeks episode as a tool to create the changes you want to see in this world. We discuss everything from developing self-awareness and the tools Lucia has been using for years to ask herself tough questions, mental health and prioritizing yourself as an entrepreneur, and changing the world one small action at a time.
Hope you get as much out of this as I have.
Thank you, Lucia
