Denise Wiggins - Made For This

39m · Brave Your Fear · 24 Feb 11:00

Podcast Intro:

Denise Wiggins is a CEO. She has started and continues to run multiple multi-million dollar businesses including Einnaf Cosmetics, a global company that empowers women with great products, but also supports an ambassador program for any woman to drive her own business. Einnaf is Denise’s grandmother’s name - Fannie - spelled backward, and it’s not the only place Denise draws inspiration. All of her organizations put community - and community building at their center, in large part, because of the lessons Denise learned from her grandmother, lessons that helped Denise pull herself out of an abusive marriage, out of homelessness with three kids, and smack dab into a life she knew she was made for. With a belief in herself so strong you will feel it beating in your own chest, and a path to success that was forged in the face of fear, pressure and adversity, Denise will tell you how she did it. How she believed. How she planned. How she surrendered. How she got up. How she gave back. How she is ready, especially now, for the hard stuff that inevitably comes.
