EP 43 - Conversation with Genecia Alluora: How to turn your mess into your message and thrive
Manage episode 299580174 series 2785892
At the age of 16, Genecia experienced horrible incidents of bullying at school. Soon after, she tried to commit suicide. Her mother’s words: “Turn your mess into a message” gave her a wake-up call and she carried those words throughout her life to make choices that empower rather than bring her down. She decided that business is a way to put yourself out into the world, and that leadership is about much more than a way to earn money. It’s a way to develop new skills and get started on a life’s journey. Genecia is a way to make change happen. Today she’s a millionaire, a purpose-driven woman and her principal of the 5 f words are something I really love. Listen to this episode and be inspired to get through the tough times and build yourself up.
