Adria DeCorte helps entrepreneurs to stop spinning their wheels and to hustle smarter, not harder. With Adria's help, her clients take a moment to slow down so that they can make a bigger impact by asking themselves the right questions and bring more clarity to their message. She brings up a very interesting point that there are actually two levels of alignment entrepreneurs have to look at, not just one. You can be aligned with who you are and what your message is, but you might not necessarily be aligned with the clients you are working with or providing services to. I know her wisdom will resonate with quite a few of my listeners, so make sure to listen in for more!

Maven Moment:
Before we wrap up this episode, I wanted to share a personal story that will hopefully inspire you to get out of your comfort zone. Towards the end of the show, Adria was talking about being so, so shy that she didn't even want to walk down the aisle of her own wedding because she was afraid that people would look at her. This is such a great story because if you look at Adria now, who has spoken on the stage of TEDx, you can see that she has obviously overcome that fear! Listen to the end of the interview to hear my personal story about breaking out and getting uncomfortable.
