In this episode i'm talking about how to redefine success on your own terms. My previous definition of success was based on societies terms and it made me miserable. I obsessed over things I couldn't control. It was all about the numbers. If you're one of those people who freaks out about turning 30 because you haven't ticked off all the boxes then this is for you. If you're an entrepreneur and slow growth makes you feel like a failure then this is also for you!
