About this episode

Marsha discusses the importance of aligning your beliefs with your goals to achieve success.

In this episode, Marsha explains the difference between your goals and your beliefs. Your goals are the “ceiling”—what you want to create. But your beliefs are the “floor”—what actually supports you.
