Description

Did you know that if you believe it, you can achieve it? In the latest episode of the Thrive by Design Podcast, you’re going to freaking love my guest today,  Lia Valencia Key! She’s a bundle of joy and shares her story about reinvention and how she transformed her childhood of poverty and hardship into something positive and amazing.  Raised with very humble beginnings and in the most impoverished neighborhood in Philidelphia, she grew up in a homeless shelter with her mother and siblings. In those dark times, her mom told her, “Your predicament does not determine your destiny”.  Lia shows you how to always find the light within yourself and how all things are possible. She’s living proof of shattering glass ceilings as she built a wildly successful business that’s been featured on QVC, Oprah’s Favorite Things, and so many more places!  We talk about: The secrets of connecting to your customers and selling on a whole new level. How to overcome adversity and not let your circumstances determine your future. How to get yourself out of a funk and find joy when you’re not feeling it. More inspiration you’re going to love! You are going to love her.  Join me as I talk with one of the most joyful people that I’ve ever spoken to! Her words of wisdom and advice on how to persevere with joy will forever change your perspective (and business)!   Join me on Thrive by Design for podcast episode 447!
