Episode Notes

Have you gotten to a point in your life where you had to give up something that was extremely important to you?  

When we start our business, that small enterprise usually becomes our little baby. We invest so much time, sweat and tears into the project, we work so hard and believe that God will turn it into something beautiful. But then we encounter failure...

Listen to Ivonne's story of her first restaurant and find out how God has rescued this "sinking ship" and crafted an entirely new and beautiful boat out of the broken pieces! Instead of continuing with a vegetarian restaurant which didn't make any profit, Jesse Zwiker helped Ivonne pivot to a new business model. And he did something that every young person needs: He believed that she would make it.
