• The first thing she did to scale her business that made all the difference
• How a major setback in her business opened doors to bigger opportunities
• Allowing audiences a glimpse of how you work through videos so they feel like they know you and are more enticed to work with you
• Her Chocolate Cake Model that allows her to remain authentic to her audience while drawing the line with oversharing 
• Why she believes in the power of showing up, knowing your audience, and knowing your “why”
