In this week's episode of The Other Side Pod, Karla Briones hops on to chat about the side of entrepreneurship that isn't so pretty. The burnout. The decisions we make when we lose connection with ourselves. The challenges that immigrant entrepreneurs face. The guilt that can be easily felt when juggling motherhood, and the directions we go when we've lost our purpose and how to come to the decision to change course.
Karla has started multiple businesses over her extensive career, and shares with us the joy of opening her first (Global Pet Foods), the frustration of starting her second (Freshii), and finally the overwhelming sense of landing in the exact right place with her non-profit, Immigrant Entrepreneur Canada, who's mandate is to empower and accelerate the impact and success of immigrant entrepreneurs in Canada.
This conversation is for anyone, entrepreneur or not, who has lived the ups and downs, or perhaps are finding themselves a little lost. Now in their 40s, Karla and Nadine share a fresh perspective on finding their groove with a sense of purpose that can only come with time, consistency, support and staying rooted in one's mission and passion.
