What if the only thing standing between you and your breakthrough… is you?

In this vulnerable and energizing episode, restaurant owner La Nihya Odom-Frank shares how breaking through self-doubt, burnout, and past “failures” led her to build one of the most talked-about loaded baked potato restaurants in Georgia. But this is not just a business story—it’s about reclaiming your energy, trusting your intuition, and setting boundaries that protect your peace.

La Nihya opens up about how her past businesses—photography, lip gloss, clothing—were practice, not failure. She reminds us that everything you’ve done is preparing you for your next level. From learning when to pivot, to embracing the soft life without guilt, this episode is packed with gems for anyone navigating their growth era.

✨ Whether you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or ready to stop shrinking, La Nihya‘s story will help you:

• Turn your "failed" ideas into fuel
• Stop over-explaining your boundaries
• Honor when you need to pause, reset, and protect your energy
