Courtney is a fierce Momma and a great businesswoman.

 Courtney does not believe in work-life balance...Listen to why!

Here is a snippet of what Courtney had to say about her life: "NONE of the trauma in my past defines me, nor do I focus on it or really even think about it. It was part of my journey....good, bad, or indifferent. I INTENTIONALLY raised my kids to be strong and independent and how to fight their own battles. Our motto in our family is, 'You have 24 hours (which means you have 24 hours to have a pity party, then suck it up, face the issue and get to work).

My youngest (19) has had four heart surgeries - I mean big doozy heart surgeries at LA Children's Hospital. And we had the same mentality - 24 hours!

Our oldest was a big sports guy; he had some health issues, etc. - but we never let him skip a practice or go in late, etc. (once you decide it's ok to miss one, then it becomes a lot easier to miss more) I could go on and on about that! LOL.

I believe "work-life balance' is a myth. You can't have it all.......but you can live intentionally. As business owners, my husband and I intentionally focused on our kids and home life at the expense of growing our business to what it could be.

As the kids got older and were out of the house more and more, we could slowly 'intentionally' turn more focus to building our business. Now they are both gone, and we are like, 'All in, baby'! Our business is growing wildly fast....but that is by intention."
