In this soul-expanding episode of Uncensored Entrepreneurs, the hosts dive into a conversation that goes far beyond strategy—into purpose, values, and the emotional compass guiding your entrepreneurial journey. Centered on the concept of “heart-set,” this discussion explores how aligning with your deepest convictions, passions, and values isn’t just good for your brand—it’s essential for building a life and business you’re proud of.
With raw honesty, they reflect on everything from leap-year babies and empty-nest shifts to financial trauma, personal branding, and how many entrepreneurs get stuck doing what “works” instead of doing what’s aligned.
