Glenn, thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Where do you get your resilience from?
I get my resilience from a mix of personal experiences and the support of those around me. Having to overcome many challenges and learning from failures have taught me to stay strong and positive. My family and friends play a crucial role, always encouraging me and offering perspective. My values, beliefs, and goals also drive me, giving me the determination to push through tough times. Each obstacle I’ve faced has made me stronger and more resilient.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?

Alright so to wrap up, who deserves credit for helping you overcome challenges or build some of the essential skills you’ve needed?
My manager and business partner has been incredibly instrumental in helping me overcome various challenges with my work. Her unwavering support and guidance have made a difference in my professional growth. Whenever I encounter a difficult situation, she is always there with practical advice, encouragement, and a clear plan of action. Her approachability and willingness to listen has created an environment where I feel comfortable discussing my concerns and seeking assistance.
