**This is Part 2**
Renee La Tour and I pick up where we left off discussing the importance of strategy and leverage in business. Renee and her partner travel the world full-time, working from anywhere, regardless of the time zone. When it comes to their core business, they collectively spend about 5 hours a week on it, which didn't happen overnight. It takes a whole lot of focus, systems and leverage to make that happen. So in this episode, Renee will share what she sees most entrepreneurs are missing when it comes to leverage and strategy that they could implement today and the one thing you need to embrace to make your "someday" dream a reality.

In this soul-stirring episode, I dive headfirst into the murky waters of navigating multiple passions and ventures. Have you ever felt stuck between being tagged as 'confused' and proudly wearing the badge of a 'multi-passionate' individual? Does it make you feel judged? Or maybe even question if you're lost? If yes, this episode is for you. We're peeling back the layers of what it means to journey through different paths - is it a sign of a lack of vision or a lack of clarity? Or is it, in fact, a testament to our strength and adaptability? Drawing from personal experiences and surprising success stories, I'm challenging the notion that focusing on just one thing is the only route to success. Tune in, and let's discover what multiple ventures truly mean for your vision. Remember, you're not alone on this journey, and every path you take is a step closer to becoming the best version of yourself.
