Invest In Yourself, Bring Your Vision To Life—with Ami Thakkar Raval - 106
Why do so many women hesitate to invest in ourselves? We’re willing to spend our time and money on other people and things but don’t give our own vision the same regard. So, how can we learn to invest in ourselves and the things want to build—without feeling bad about it?
Ami Thakkar Raval is the host of Tuckered Out with Ami Thakkar, a podcast celebrating South Asian trailblazers and experts from around the world.
