Today we are going to get a little bit more philosophical but without losing the focus to provide you with actionable ideas and content. Our topic ….freedom. To be more specific entrepreneurial freedom. Why is it that so many of us start an entrepreneurial journey and after some time has passed we find ourselves trapped? Trapped by the circumstances, the growth of the company, and the surrounding environment. Let’s be blunt and recognize first, we are most probably still running in a golden hamster wheel.

I was interviewed by Angie Lee and enrolled me into coming up with a clear list of things that I feel could help entrepreneurs  and the seven biggest mistakes that sacrifice their sanity.

I think we laughed for about 40 minutes straight. 

But listed to this episode and take one thing from it. Send it to me in a DM so you make it public knowledge and you're accountable that you will put it into practice so that you can keep moving the needle in your life and in your business. 

The mistakes that I take about are huge, but they are also very simple to fix.

This is part one of a two-part conversation. On this episode, AUDREYANNA chats with Valerie Sigamani, a photographer and ministry leader. We talk about the lessons Valerie has learned about her worth, value and identity in Christ as she journeyed through unemployment and failures in entrepreneurship. In some way, we’ve all struggled with questions of self-worth and identity, and we all can relate to Valerie's story. 

Everyone experiences unemployment differently and from varying degrees. Eviction, poverty and hardship can be results of unemployment. For others, savings, financial stability and the support of others can allow unemployment to be a time of self discovery or a long sabbatical. Unemployment is a crisis affecting the U.S. and the globe, and this 30-minute conversation wasn't able to fully address the severity of this issue.

Internationally renowned hair stylist, Jonathan Antin, is known for creating the most sought-after hairstyles for Hollywood's A-list celebrities. A true innovator in the world of beauty, he made his television debut on ABC's Extreme Makeover and E! Entertainment's Fashion Emergency, effectively pioneering the trend of bringing beautiful hairstyles to modern day cable and network programming. Antin's acquired fame and success led to a starring role on Bravo's hit series Blow Out, which chronicled his life for 3 years as a passionate and driven salon owner and celebrity stylist. Shortly after, Antin took over the role as the head judge on the 3rd season of Bravo's next hot show, Shear Genius. Blow Out and Shear Genius aired in over 40 countries bringing Jonathan international acclaim in addition to being two of the first reality TV shows ever on air hence changing the face of television today.

A Los Angeles native, Antin was raised among the fashion and beauty industry's elite. As a teenager, he was inspired by Warren Beatty's role in the award-winning hit movie Shampoo. It was then that Antin found his true calling and enrolled in the Hollywood Beauty Academy, after which he began working at some of the city's best salons. Like Beatty's character, Antin's good looks, charisma, unique fashion sense and fresh approach proved irresistible. Within a few short years, and after extensive experience styling runway shows in NYC and Paris, Antin opened the doors to his own namesake salon for over 20+ years, garnishing a list of celebrity clientele, all the while creating his own successful hair product collection sold globally and on QVC.

For more than 25 years, Antin's cutting-edge hairstyles and innovative contributions to the world of lifestyle and beauty have been featured in countless  fashion and style magazines, including Vanity Fair, Elle, Vogue, Allure, W, In Style, People, Glamour and Harper's Bazaar. Antin also fashioned the looks in many award winning music videos including Ricky Martin's "Livin' La Vida Loca," Aerosmith's "Livin 'on the Edge" and the Pussycat Dolls "Don't Cha". Antin has worked with high-profile celebrities including Madonna, Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Lopez, Cameron Diaz, Nicole Kidman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Eva Mendes, Kate Bosworth, Jewel, KD Lang, Christina Aguilera, Tobey Maguire, Eric Dane, Jay Leno, Tiger Woods, Katherine McPhee, David Beckham and Gavin Rossdale – just to name a few. Additionally, he has appeared regularly and shared his expertise on NBC's Today Show for over a decade, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, ABC's The View, Jimmy Kimmel Live and also on cable networks including E! Entertainment, the Style Network and MTV.
