In episode 27, Naketa Ren Thigpen, #1 balance and relationship advisor spills all the tea on the importance of being intentionally selfish when it's most needed and figuring out what makes you happy. And not allowing the hypocrisy of our industries to hold us back from our version of happiness.

Naketa takes us back to her journey from college to getting into a field in which she excelled. There was a time when she was doing really great and being able to focus on her skills but learned it wasn't what made her happy. If you feel that way, know that there is hope and you too, can fulfill your life with all things you love.

We also dive into:

A personal trauma that Naketa faced that she used to push her dreams forward.
The journey in digging deeper to get clarity.
Her transition from being an employee in the system to being the boss.
The moment she realized her 68-page business plan was all wrong despite the professionals that approved it.
How to deal with the family and friends that don't understand your decision to shift.
What being intentionally selfish means and its impact.
Even if you are educated and experienced, there may come a time when you need a coach to help you get some introspection.
