#26 Racheal Cook - Live Your Dream Life While Growing a Biz
If you're anything like me, a major reason, if not THE reason, you turned entrepreneur was for your dream lifestyle. If you're busy pushing full speed ahead waiting for that magic income number to finally take time for yourself, you need this episode.Our guest on Feed Your Hustle today, Racheal Cook, is a self-proclaimed typical type-A overachiever who walked away from a consulting job where she worked 80 hours a week after she realized it was toxic for her mental, physical and spiritual health. After that breakthrough, she has completely dramatically re-designed every aspect of her life and business based on her own definition of success (where creating a meaningful life is just as important as creating a meaningful living).
“You can have a beautiful life right now, while you grow your business.” - Racheal Cook
