Candace Nelson Instagram – There’s value in the journey 👇🏻 Not every step in your life or career is going to be your dream situation…. But every step in your life and career IS a stepping stone, slowly forming pieces of the path to who you’re meant to be. Take my first career, for example. I headed straight into investment banking after graduation, despairingly thinking “well, I guess this is it.” After getting laid off, I viewed the time I spent in investment banking as a total waste. 🙄 That is, until I found myself sitting on the other side of the table looking to sell majority stake in Sprinkles Cupcakes to none other than – yep, that’s right – investment bankers. Life has a funny way of coming full circle, and every pivot, boring job and “mistake” eventually comes back to you as a lesson or integral experience down the line. If you feel rushed to have the “perfect” job, home, partner, or life right now, remember that where you are right now is just a piece of the puzzle on your journey 🧩 👉🏻 Comment and let me know if you can relate to this story! #entrepreneurjourney #trusttheprocess #trustthejourney #businessjourney #candacenelson #sprinklescupcakes #sharktank #entrepreneurwomen #womenentrepreneurship #fullcirclemoment #motivationalspeech #businessmotivation
