Turning your passion into a career. On Episode #6 I sit down with the uber talented and fiercely driven couple, Elise Young (@elisesbodyshop), fitness professional and founder of Elise's Bodyshop, and her wife, Carmen Perez (cperez_1), a financial services professional, turned tech entrepreneur. These women are a dynamic duo who have fought to stay unwaveringly authentic, all while building their own businesses centered around their individual passions. In this conversation we discuss conquering debt and achieving financial freedom, the value of branching out and building a network, and the true benefits, both personally and professionally, of putting in hard work and never giving up! Elise and Carmen share the lessons they’ve learned along the way and how they’ve applied these lessons, leading to where they are today. Their stories are insightful and inspiring.
