Staying calm in the chaos of COVID-19 | Candice Olivier Karma Collab Hub | Ep 11
During these unprecedented times across the globe with COVID-19, it becomes even more important to remain calm and not bring negative energy into the environment, especially in the workplace.
"Having that calmness in the community and being supportive is what will hold us together."
Welcome to this week's episode of The Mind to Lead. Today I sat down with Candice Olivier.
Candice moved to Australia from Zimbabwe in 2007 and immediately started to look for opportunities to succeed.
It wasn't only out of despair to support her family but feeling blessed for being in a position to achieve whatever she set her mind too.
Her experiences have included moving abroad to follow business opportunities, and opening businesses, learning from every failure! (well most of them!)
Candice witnessed growth on a personal level in 2019 that lead her to close her corporate business and walk away from her corporate life and ego.
Candice finally deciding to follow her heart and do what she has always felt was lacking in her endeavours.
"Creating a positive social impact."
Candice is now even thirstier for this to be on a global scale after having not pursued this earlier.
Candice's goal is to have an extensive list of successful businesses and entrepreneurs. Working with them to create more sustainable ecosystems in their workplace that are heart-driven to make wealth and with that successfully contribute on a MASSIVE ACTION scale.
