Description: Ever feel like your mistakes are holding you back? My guest today says they might just be your greatest asset. Kim Perrell is a wildly successful entrepreneur, angel investor, and now author of Mistakes That Made Me a Millionaire. In this candid conversation, Kim pulls back the curtain on the failures, missteps, and humbling moments that paved the way to her $235 million company sale — and how you can turn your own stumbles into stepping stones. We talk about why job security is a myth, the “70% rule” that helped her overcome perfectionism, how to stop self-rejecting, and why business is always personal. Hosted on Acast.
