Are you stuck in an unfulfilling career that’s not making you happy? Do you wish you could take a leap of faith on your biggest passion?
Get pumped about today’s episode of Get Gutsy because I’m speaking with my longtime friend and the creator of Hoola Monsters, Abby Albaum.
I hired Abby as an intern back in our New York City public relations agency days. I just knew she was a superstar and I was right! We worked together for a few years and as fate would have it, we BOTH ended up resigning from that company at the exact same time. We had a joint going away party to celebrate the next chapter in our careers!
Abby shares her inspiring story and how movement meditation in the form of hoop dancing helped her overcome the darkest days of her life AND helped her build her entrepreneurial dream.
We also talk about pushing through uncertainty as an entrepreneur, unconscious eating, healing and transformation, trusting the signs, and so much more!
Tune in and find out how she transformed her life and quit her career in marketing to build a successful business empire with hoop dancing at its core.
