The Dance of Life Moving Toward Your Most Authentic Self (Feat. La Toya Davis, PhD)

Beyond the Book

"I felt the chill of the bathroom floor up through my body, and I stifled the sobs. My two kids were on the other side of the door, and I didn’t want them to hear me. As I sat on that cold floor, I realized something had to change. I could not do what I was doing any longer. I started dating my husband in 1999, and it was now 2015. In sixteen years of growing, loving, and living, I had become so intertwined that it was easy to lose my own person in that union.

Somewhere along the line, I stopped being La Toya, and I started becoming my husband’s wife. We had built a successful business and were leaders in the spiritual community. The community knew us as a collective entity. I still had tremendous love for my husband, but for many years I had been expecting and wanting something from him that he could not give."

Following the release of Against All Odds, La Toya joined us on the podcast to discuss her take on how persistence in business makes a tangible impact as well as her chapter in the book. La Toya's chapter entitled "The Dance of Life Moving Toward Your Most Authentic Self" shares her personal and professional experiences that led her to achieving success by showcasing persistence and determination each step of the way.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy another enlightening conversation from one of the brightest minds in business.
