Bold Journey: Hi Stephanie, appreciate you sitting with us today. Maybe we can start with a topic that we care deeply about because it’s something we’ve found really sets folks apart and can make all the difference in whether someone reaches their goals. Self-discipline seems to have an outsized impact on how someone’s life plays out, and so we’d love to hear about how you developed yours?
Stephanie Housley: Likely a combo of nature/nurture. I have never struggled with self-discipline, moderation, setting rules for myself, and sticking to them. So that makes me feel that it must be something that is just an inherent trait. My Dad was an exceptional hard worker, extremely focused and driven, so I think he was an influence and a role model as well.
