The Resilient Entrepreneur with Michelle Mercier

Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to stop striving and start thriving? How about what it would feel like to reboot your life and step more fully into your authentic self?

Chanel Dokun speaks to us about her journey to discover the parts of her authentic self that had been buried under layers of societal expectations and pressures. Chanel spent years building the life she believed would make her happy only to emerge feeling disappointed, disillusioned, and like she'd lost herself while running after a "successful" life.

We discuss topics such as:

Why people are drowning in pursuit of the "good life."
Why redefining your purpose could be the key to building an extraordinary life
What practical steps you can take to reboot your life
How to tune in and learn to listen to what YOU want
How to reclaim time your morning and build personal momentum
