Understanding the significance of life's transformative cycles, Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree Aisha Marshall joins my podcast this episode. As a dynamic marketing professional who has founded her own jewelry brand and agency, Aisha reached the pinnacle of success at a young age. However, when she found herself unhappy, she made the bold decision to dismantle her thriving business. Now, through her platform Butterfly Szn and guided journal "Butterfly SZN", Aisha is dedicated to helping others embrace life's transitions as they work to fulfill their highest potential.
In this episode, Aisha shares her personal journey of transformation - from burning down her successful agency when unhappy, to founding Butterfly SZN. She discusses using the metaphor of a butterfly's life cycle to represent growth and change. Aisha details her experiences journaling through difficult periods to work through limiting beliefs and patterns. I had a thoughtful conversation with Aisha about embracing life's cycles, prioritizing internal knowing over external validation, and building a business aligned with one's core values. Listeners are inspired to use Aisha's guided journal to aid their own transitions and transformations.
