What is the cost of success? In today's episode I sit down with Mary Grace Gardner and she expands her ideas on that question. In her pursuit for corporate success, she realized that she was lacking in other areas. She did not have as much time to spend with loved ones, hobbies, or self care. Through this realization, Gardner spent dedicated time defining what success looked like and meant for her. This process is ultimately what led her to a life of multidimensional success.
