“If something is important to me, it has to be important enough that I prioritize it on my calendar and make it happen.”

Adriana Bates is the owner and founder of Clear Mortgage. She’s also a loving wife, mother and a friend I’ve known and coached for years. I’m excited to share her story and insights with you in this episode.

We start talking about motivation, discuss the trials of having a young family and harmonizing them with your work life. We discuss a few inspirational books and podcasts, and then learn how to enjoy every season of our life. This is a great conversation with a dynamic leader, don’t miss it!
