Episode 226: Falling off a Bridge and the Case for Renewed Focus

Sherry experiences a close call while on vacation with her family. She slips off a suspension bridge, but thanks to her new found ninja skills (from aerial yoga), she’s able to grab a rope mid-air and avoid major injury. She uses the story as a reminder that as entrepreneurs the things we practice, the things we do repeatedly, will be available to us in a time of need. She also talks about the new year being a time for picking a theme of growth, and for her this year’s theme is focus: being more intentional and organized within her business.
