It’s been almost 10 years since I left my law firm to start my own business. And, yet, I still get asked the same questions now that I did when I first made the leap.

Join me for a discussion about aging, improving our appearance, and social conditioning. As a feminist, it annoys me that I even care what I look like.

Last week, I shared my journey with trading stocks. That’s all because a good friend introduced me to Teri Ijeoma back in 2022. Teri has made $1 million in a day in the stock market (multiple times) and has the #1 course on Teachable. Not only is she an amazing businesswoman, she’s an incredible teacher. I’m so lucky to have learned from her.  Lucky for you, Teri graciously agreed to come on Hustle & Flow to share with you her story of building wealth and why we all need to have this financial skillset.  Tune in now and then be sure to sign up for Teri’s upcoming Take Your First Trade Challenge at http://www.HeatherJoyHubbard.com/Trade.  As a student and beneficiary of Teri’s teachings, I happily agreed to be an affiliate partner.

I’ve not told too many people this, but I’m finally starting to share that I’m a full-time day-trader. Never in a million years would I have thought that would be my profession. It wasn’t something I planned. It kind of just happened.  During my health sabbatical, I needed a way to distract my mind and make money without having to be public-facing. So, I decided to learn how to trade stocks. Fast forward 18-months, and I’m a professional full-time trader. Yes, I still have the podcast and lead retreats, but trading stocks has provided me more freedom and flexibility in prioritizing what brings me the most joy. In today’s Hustle & Flow episode, I’m sharing why I love trading so much, why I think everyone needs this skillset, and how you can start making short-term investments even as a busy professional.

I have a love/hate relationship with phrases like "everything happens for a reason" and "it's happening for you." In many ways, I think they're dismissive. But, I also know they've totally helped me come out of dark places.
