Depression, Stimulants and being a Mom Boss - Nicola Pheiffer, Part 1

Loading player...

[Re-release: 2023] In a raw and honest conversation with the founder of Simply Granola, Nicola, we chat about the reality of entrepreneurship and that it’s not always as it is perceived on social media.

Nicola shares her personal journey and how she shifted from a career in finance to taking the leap back in 2016 and starting her own business out of a love for all things healthy and wholesome.

We talk about sacrifice, stimulants, depression, anxiety, and how Nicola doesn’t rely on a rigid morning or evening routine to be a kick-ass “one-man wolfpack”....

Nicola has her own formula for achieving success and self-growth, and don’t forget to please subscribe and share this episode with your friends, family or colleagues.
