Her Rise...

Ambitious and hard-working Jasmine said she began working as a teenager and has always had some type of hustle. Jasmine's future would continue to look bright as she landed a dream internship her senior year of high school.

"...my story is a little different because I was also pregnant with my son my senior year of high school. I had already applied for this internship before I knew I was pregnant"

"Life doesn't go the way you plan it," Jasmine said. "It never does," host Stephanie Arbetter said.

"So, I went to college I worked full time during the day. I went to school at night. Sometimes my son would be in class with me at night. And so within three years, I got my bachelor's in marketing," Jasmine said.

In this episode, Stephanie gets real with Jasmine about what it takes to succeed as a freelancer, to honing in on your skill set, to finding a new passion and what it takes to build an empire in a niche industry.
