- (3:56) In the beginning I didn’t mean to go into business.
- (5:12) Don't be scared if your business becomes bigger than you originally planned!
- (6:43) My personal definition of success is to utilize my gifts and talents to help other people, not working a traditional 9-5 job, and to be happy.

- (11:43) I can see that my work with children is helping my own children.
- (12:30) My biggest success is finishing something that I started.
- (14:17) Believe in yourself and your brand. As long as you know who you are, it doesn’t matter what other people think of you.

- (18:46) Building a business is a journey everyday. It’s all part of a process and you have to trust the process!
- (20:03) A lot of time people equate success with money, but I equate success as helping other people by sharing my gifts and talents.
- (21:10) Sometimes it’s okay to be selfish when building a business. You have to be the master at balance whether you’re a mother or wife or neither, you always have other things to do besides building your business. Taking a break is absolutely okay, too!
