  • Definition of success:  A feeling of contentedness – that right now, she has enough.

Inspirational Quotes

“When stuff starts to get hard, as an entrepreneur, you have to be genuinely interested in what you’re doing in order to keep going.”

“I am an entrepreneur by accident.”

“Do not underestimate how difficult it is to figure out how you become productive.”

“Knowing that there’s no one right way, having an experimental mindset, and putting feedback loops in place – you can’t go wrong, I guess, with that framework.”

Coaching Advice

Struggling with how and when to take breaks while working remotely?  Lisette shared this advice for working remotely:

1) At the beginning of every week, she sets her working hours in her calendar alongside her schedule.

2) Outside of those working hours, she doesn’t allow herself to work. If she needs to take a break or a nap, that time just comes out of the total work time.
