Business
When you know what's most important to you, even the toughest decisions are easier to make. Not easy, but easier. For my guest this week, operating a business steeped in her values was fundamental to her definition of success. Amanda Munday is the Founder & CEO of The Workaround which is a co-working space in east Toronto offering something many other workspaces don't - quality childcare. This offering isn't just an add-on, though. It's an intentional part of Amanda's business design and one she doesn't compromise on. In this episode we talk about: How Amanda holds her values close, even in the midst of tough financial decisions; How she is shifting her mindset to see money as a tool that helps her help more families to succeed, rather than a negative force that comes with all sorts of emotional baggage attached; How she handles shiny object-itis as an entrepreneur and instead focuses on the compound growth effect of seemingly doing the same things repetitively; Her view of the "long-suffering-workaholic-entrepreneur" archetype and why we need to find another way; and Why she wrote her important book: "Day Nine: A Post-Partum Depression Memoir" and how her experience with severe post-partum depression informs the "Why" of her business and how she serves her customers now Follow Be Ambitious For Her on: Instagram, Twitter, Facebook
