(Here is the final segment to this series on being brave enough to tell your story. If you missed any of the others, catch part 1 and part 2 before reading!) For days after that, I felt a bit lost. Were we doing the right thing? Was this the place for us? Were we strong enough to be a leader in this environment? Were we really prepared? After a few days, it clicked. Yes.

I was lucky enough to fall into a program that Dr. Jeff Cornwall had designed AND to be a part of it on the ground floor. He had built a program not about case studies and faux business plans but real life. Real business. MY business. Each student was working on their own plans. Everyday. Each class designed to teach us principles needed to best “fail on paper” as we sifted through all the information and research it takes to incubate our dreams.…

Leave a CommentHey friends. I wanted to do a little housekeeping before we get to far along in all of this together! First, I’d love be a part of your social circles! Here is my info. We all communicate on different platforms so hopefully we are both on at least one of the following!
