Episode 2.03: Using Your Chronic Illness as a Catalyst for Change with Amy Lacey
Hello loves.
When you have a chronic illness, it’s common to wonder how you’re ever going to have the energy or ability to accomplish the things you want to do, have the business you want to have, or live the life you want to live.
I know for me personally, hearing stories of women accomplishing amazing things while living with a chronic illness really helps me put things in perspective and feel incredibly inspired. That’s why I’m so excited to bring you this week’s guest.
Amy Lacey is the Founder and CEO of Cali’flour Foods and, in this episode, we’re talking about the difficulties she had changing her habits after being diagnosed with Lupus, how she grew her company to $20 million in sales in less than two years and to being worth $40 million today, the five P’s of her business, and so much more!
