NAVIGATING ENTREPRENEURSHIP DURING THE GREAT RESIGNATION: WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU CAN’T RESIGN FROM YOURSELF?

You look around, and you’re fed up. The company no longer aligns with your personal vision for the future, you aren’t sure if the antiquated structures can adapt to the changing landscape, and you haven’t felt fulfilled in a while. You are so close to quitting. The problem? You own the company.

While those with a 9 to 5 gig can turn in their resignation on Friday and by Monday set off for Tibet to “find themselves,” you don’t have that luxury. So what do you do as a business owner when your business begins to feel like a prison rather than the ticket to freedom you promised yourself when you started?

Instead of resigning from yourself, it is time to get aligned. In this profound and interactive session, Aleya Harris will give you the tools you need to support yourself and your business through any economic or personal evolution. By the time you are done, you will have the ability to tap into your authentic self, release outdated expectations, and approach an ever-changing world with a refreshed outlook.
