How does an entrepreneur adjust when life throws curveballs? Join host Catryn Becker as she shares into her personal experiences with recent challenges and the strategies that helped her navigate them.
“In business, in life, in everything, there are situations that arise that are completely outside of our control.” – Catryn Becker
In this unique solo episode, host Catryn Becker steps away from the usual guest interviews to provide a personal update following a challenging month. July brought unexpected hurdles, including Hurricane Beryl, which caused widespread power outages in Houston, affecting Catryn’s ability to maintain her normal podcasting schedule. Despite these disruptions, Catryn shares how prior planning and episode pre-scheduling allowed her to manage the crisis effectively without missing a beat in her podcast delivery.
Catryn also discusses the need to adjust the frequency of her podcast episodes from twice a week to once a week, starting August 1st. This change is driven by the increasing demands of her business, Optimize We, where she designs wellness programs for successful women and their teams. The episode is a reflective look at the importance of adaptability in both personal and professional life, highlighting how preparedness can mitigate the impact of unforeseen events.
