"Your internal dialogue will either make you, or it will break you. Big success or small success, your belief system is what determines when, where, and how far you will take your business."
Like you, behavioral expert and entrepreneurial coach Joanna Cox has been in the start up phase of launching a business. How is it possible that some people succeed while others fail? Is your mind running a positive pattern of success? Or is it running a negative pattern of fear or failure causing you to hold yourself back?

A message from Joanna
"If you've ever heard my story, I was a successful business owner, married and living the fast-paced life of a CEO in the corporate world in the Toronto area. By 2009 my world came crashing down. My marriage had ended abruptly, the buyout from the company I had built from scratch was terminated and I survived a near death experience when I was physically attacked when I was in the start-up phase of launching my coaching & training business. I suddenly found myself forced into a 3.2 million dollar bankruptcy and lost everything that I had worked so hard for. I was financially destitute. An unexpected move brought me to Northern Ontario where I made my new start with $700 in my pocket. I stayed with friends, lived in my office for a few months and did what it took despite my concerned family and friends advising me to just go and find a job somewhere to bring in a steady income. My determination and belief in myself as an entrepreneur is what kept me focused and driven. I was emotionally, financially and physically beaten up - but I wasn't beaten down. Your internal dialogue will either make you or it will break you. Big success or small success, your belief system is what determines when, where, and how far you will go in your life, relationships, career, business or any other area you might be focusing on. Not only did I transcend those difficult times, I made it my life's purpose to help those starting or re-starting in their relationships and businesses."
