#156 Saying "no" to something good — Jenny Blake on the inner CFO, spending every penny just to try, working at Google, running towards something vs. running away, creating assets for yourself, making yourself discoverable, and seeking advice from "friendtors"

Jenny is an author, international speaker, career and business strategist and executive coach. She has worked in a start up during her college years and then she worked at Google. At some point she decided to follow her passions and left her job. She has already written three books, she runs a business on intuition and she continues discovering her own path.
