Episode 18 has you look at yourself, your circumstances, and how you view business and entrepreneurship, to begin answering the question, "Do You Have What it Takes to Thrive in Business?" This episode covers some of the not-so-easy discussions that people are faced with after they start and begin failing in business. It also sets up future conversations (some with guest speakers) to be had in upcoming episodes of this podcast.

Natasha shares some tips and lessons for those who are thinking about starting a business, those who are already in business, and those who are struggling and contemplating their next moves.

Then she pivots to introduce you to three entrepreneurs:

ENTREPRENEUR #1
Sean L. Brown, retired military (after almost 22 years), author, fitness instructor and wellness coach, and motivational speaker. He and his business partner April have launched a clothing line LETME which stands for "Live Every Tiny Moment Exceptionally".
The connections that he formed through his fitness career inspired him to begin writing and sharing his experiences before and during that era in his life. Sean is the author of three books:

Just A Thought (2017): which he first started working on in 2010 while deployed at the Baghram Airfield in Afghanistan. A collection of random and intentional thoughts while facing life's challenges.

Just a Thought, Too (2018): a 3-part book covering tough and often avoided subjects of race, equality, sexuality and more; part two is a culmination of thoughts in the forms of blogs. In part three of the book, he shares pictures from his travels and motivational messages and passages.

Just a Thought, Tree (2019): a book of his photographs of the world taken through his cellphone.

If you want to meet Sean and check out one of his events, here is his calendar:
