Podcast – Show Notes
[S3 EP 142]


Excuses in entrepreneurship are not allowed. They keep you stuck and create a barrier between you and success, and what you once started will crumble. Say no to excuses and yes to success!

I have a special guest for today's episode, a woman with an improvement story where the word "excuse" wasn't in her vocabulary; this woman is Rodrika Bailey Scott.

Rodrika is a woman who had a child at 16 years old, something that for many may be the end of their future but for Rodrika was the driving force to achieve their dreams and goals.

We will talk about overcoming, the importance of having a niche, and why you should have training before startup your entrepreneurship. Also, you will hear Rodrika's story and the mentality that has led her to achieve everything she has set out to do.
