How do you make decisions about where to spend time in your business? What is the most important thing you focus on in your business each day? What would you say to someone who wants a bigger list and a bigger paycheck, but feels stuck? SOUL FUELED QUOTES: “Even when it seems like a really tough choice like quitting a job or ending a relationship, it feels like the end of the world, but then we realize it’s just the beginning of this even better world.”  “When you remove the anxiety and fear of the ego, it’s really from this place of having fun and helping people.”  “The people who are meant to be in your tribe will resonate more with you the more that you are yourself and the more you have confidence in that person.” “Do I need to be focusing on making more and doing more? Is it actually fulfilling me? For me, it’s about running my business from a place of meaning and intention.” DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: www.melyssagriffin.com ← sign up for her list here!
