EP9: Knowing Better & Doing Better

Coming from the Northwest, Sherrell, like so many of us, was raised with the long-held idea of attending school, getting a good job, working at that job for 15 or so years, going on a couple of cruises, and then...die. Being the first entrepreneur in her family seemed almost like a hindrance, but as she reflected on her journey and the failures, roadblocks, and successes along the way, Sherrell realized that it was actually her superpower!

Listen in as Sherrell debunks the myth of inbred entrepreneurship and reveals the four superpowers that shaped her journey to fearlessness, reinvention, and success in entrepreneurship.
