In this episode of the Everyday EQ podcast, I'm pumped to chat with Chris Belloso, entrepreneur and host of The Beautiful Struggle Podcast. Chris' story is one of perseverance, self-direction, and liberation. Listen in on our conversation as Chris shares how he didn't let perfectionism stop him from "failing" his way forward and finding his purpose of creating generational wealth for his family and community. We also talk about why finding your WHY is CRITICAL, how to properly invest in yourself, and the two BIG things Chris had to overcome in order to get on his purpose path (listen up: You might be dealing with these two challenges yourself).
For more from Chris and to check out his podcast, you can check him out on Instagram @ChrisBelloso and @beautifulstrugglepodcast.
