With all that's going on across the country at this time, it's vital to your business to tap into your network now more than ever. This is also the time push hard in your business. Carrie and Chas discuss how this pandemic has affected them, as well as what they plan to do to prepare for the aftermath.

Carrie Wilkerson, keynote speaker and author of "The Barefoot Executive," talks about the importance of finding our "why," how it changes over time, how important it is in entrepreneurship and being a leader. She also talks in depth about how entrepreneurship may not be for everyone. Timestamps: 8:07 - Why she started her business and what motivates her to do what she does 19:19 - The beginning of her second business journey 23:20 - One of the biggest challenges she's faced 33:22 - The difference between elite performance people and normal people 36:45 - This is why you SHOULDN'T have a business 42:15 - How to manage relationships while being an entrepreneur 48:09 - The role that faith plays in her personal journey

Carrie Wilkerson went from twice her current size, weighing 266lbs and feeling lethargic, to being what I describe as "tiny" and an absolute ball of fire when it comes to energy. Learn how she created the life of her dreams, built a business from home and raised four kids. 

Her father always taught her, "if you can find a way to get paid for talking, Baby Girl, you will have it made!" And she has taken that to the bank, speaking regularly in front of large arenas and smaller groups. Carrie sits down with me and brings tons of humor and multiple lessons about transformation, the balance of work and family, and the value of knowing your worth and demanding your proper price.
