In this episode I talk to Jill Schultz about her journey as a successful entrepreneur and what leading with integrity means to her leadership style and how she approaches life decisions.
Introduction
Jill Schultz is a serial entrepreneur, industry disruptor, author, motivational speaker, and business strategist.
In her courageous work around her own healing, she has been able to let go of the debilitating shame and self-loathing that had kept her paralyzed for forty-one years. The realization that helped her out of this shame was that she was not alone.
Jill’s warmth, understanding, lived experience and quick wit diffuse some of the heaviness around this subject. Jill is an expert in shame, and if there were degrees (Associates, Bachelors, Masters, PHD, double PHDs,) in shame, she’d have them all.
Jill’s approach will leave you free to create a space for love, success, and abundance.
