Have you ever wondered what it takes to reinvent yourself, whether it’s starting a new business, building healthier habits, or leveraging tools like social media to grow your network? In this episode, I sit down with Sonya Strader of CottageCare Lake Norman, who shares her inspiring journey from a traditional career path to becoming a successful franchise owner.
