How Developing Self-Belief and a Resilience Mindset Can Help You Succeed in Life and in Business with Destinee Berman

Destinee-Berman smiling

Here in the I Heart My Life community, we are all about becoming the best version of ourselves, whether that means becoming the best business owner we want to be, or the best parent, or the best spouse.

But of course, with next-level growth and high ambition, can come with a lot of pressure, emotion and challenge.

This week’s guest, the brilliant Destinee Berman has overcome so much to get to where she is today…but through it all, she’s kept going.

Destinee is a supermom, an amazing woman, a successful entrepreneur and business owner who overcame generations of family programming and the drive to survive.

One of the things I admire most about her, is how she’s reinvented herself many times over. She’s also a bad-a$$ when it comes to business and marketing.

“Being driven by fear, and being driven by this need to just make it will only take you so far. And so you know, in this range of doing something for joy, doing something for fun, doing something because I just want to, it has never really been in my world for most of my life. And so the fear is there because you feel like the rug will always be pulled underneath you.” – Destinee Berman

And today on the Show, she’s here to share how to start a business (and pivot if you’re no longer aligned), the secrets to upleveling, why it’s important to be driven by desire and not fear, and more.

Are you ready? Because I know I am!

Let’s dive in.

Quotes:

“I’m learning what I need to say ‘no’ to and what I need to say ‘yes’ to, and learning how to build teams and systems so that I can have the kind of company that I want, and so also be the mom and the spouse that I want to be.” – Destinee Berman

“Being [a child of] immigrants and having to survive, that has been instilled in me for better or worse. And so this drive, this ambition, I do believe that some of it is intrinsic.” – Destinee Berman

“Being driven by fear, and being driven by this need to just make it will only take you so far. And so you know, in this range of doing something for joy, doing something for fun, doing something because I just want to, it has never really been in my world for most of my life. And so the fear is there because you feel like the rug will always be pulled underneath you.” – Destinee Berman

“The message that I’ve always received [from my parents] is ‘You don’t have freedom unless you have your own business.’” – Destinee Berman 

“I do feel like I still have so much more potential and possibility to fulfill […] There is that inner critic, for better or worse, that I know, I have more potential, more possibility to expand on. And there has been an intrinsic grit that has been learned, and my ambition.” – Destinee Berman
