We Needed to Get Real and Put the Ego Aside — Susan Frew

Susan Frew felt like hiding under a rock after her employee stole from her and took a considerable amount of money out of the business. Despite winning 43 awards and winning Inc. 500, her mental health struggled and so did her business while all of this was going on. The biggest takeaway was that she let her ego get in the way and it didn’t allow her to properly recover from the incident, but after taking deliberate and intentional action on her miracle journal and being grateful, Susan has come out of this more successful than ever.
