## Resource

In this episode, I got to sit down with Susie Batista - an incredibly inspiring entrepreneur whose journey has taken her from the skies as an air stewardess to the world of high-end interior design and now full-time property development. Susie shared how she pivoted from a fast-paced airline career to staging homes, trusting her instincts and following the signs along the way.  She opened up about juggling family life, building two businesses with her husband, and the role that mindset, mentorship, and a little bit of faith played in their success. What really stuck with me was Susie’s reminder that asking for help and sharing your vision can open unexpected doors - sometimes literally leading to six-figure investments. If you’ve ever wondered how to grow a business with heart, manage high-stakes clients, or sell your company with confidence, Susie’s insights are gold. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did.
