🌟 Today, we're diving into one of my all-time favorite topics: investing in personal growth. With so many options out there—conferences, masterminds, and retreats—it can be tricky to know where to spend your precious time and money. Not every opportunity is created equal, and with influencers left and right, how do you sift through the noise?

In this episode, I'll share my tried-and-true method for making smart investments in your personal development. Here's what we'll cover:
