Episode 205: Turning Tragedy into Opportunity

Danielle Howard of Wealth by Design, LLC

“So that kind of led me to going, ‘wow, I'm in this business, but there's got to be something more to it. There's got to be, you know, a deeper aspect to it than just knowing the techniques and all of the tools and the products that were out there.’ So, after going through a process of forgiving others, forgiving myself, and deciding how to work through it. I decided that I wanted to come into the business with a little bit of a different perspective.” – Danielle Howard
