Challenge To Triumph: Advice To Overcome The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster

The journey of entrepreneurship is fraught with challenges. However, as may be said of any endeavor, success lies not in the attainment of the end-goal, but rather in the mastery of self through the lessons learned along the way. 

The hallmark of a true entrepreneur lies in the appreciation of each challenge being a lesson in disguise.

In 2020, as the World began to navigate the Pandemic, renowned Life Coach and celebrated Author Mel Robbins, wrote her latest book, ‘The High Five Habit’. During a recent podcast interview with Jay Shetty, Robbins shared what contributed to the creation of the book:

‘It is about learning to wipe the dust off the mirror between ourselves and our reflection staring back at us’

In March 2020, within the space of 72 hours, Robbins endured a barrage of obstacles: her CBS Daily Broadcast Show was axed, her publishing contract was cancelled and her daughters’ College closed. She felt complete defeat.

Robbins attributes the success of her book to the events of those 72 hours. Had they not transpired as they did, she might never have created ‘The High Five Habit’.  

In a recent interview Kendra Davies and Bella Marie Lane, shared their own stories of overcoming adversity to reach success in their businesses. 

Kendra Davies: Learn How To Stay In Your Lane

Kendra Davies is one of America’s leading Life Coaches and advisor to Fortune 100 Companies, with the foundation of her work rooted in the science of Positive Psychology.

During times of difficulty, a common default behaviour of high-achieving women is to isolate. At a time when isolation is already amplified by current world circumstances, the result can lead to obsessively focusing on what your competitors are doing, and falsely believing you need to follow suit. Learning how to put your blinkers on and stay in your own lane, was the lesson in disguise waiting for Davies. It enabled her to create a business that has thrived during one of the most challenging times in economic history.

Her biggest piece of advice:

‘Let go of all the ideas of what you thought you needed to look like or act like in order to create success. Comparison creates a prison within the mind, no CEO can operate from that place, let it go and stay in your lane! Define success for yourself and hold yourself to that standard.’

Bella Maree Lane: Fortitude And Faith

Entrepreneurship is a journey of self mastery, where moving through the valleys allows you to relish in the peaks. One of the many pillars to mastery is mentorship. Bella Maree Lane, who has spent the past 2 decades working with World-Class Mentors, has mastered the understanding of when to do the work, and when to outsource support in the pursuit of long lasting change.

Lane is an Australian Heart Wound Healer, and Tantric and Conscious Intimacy Coach, who resides in Southern California. She specializes in the areas of relatability and relationships, two concepts that many have struggled with during extended lockdowns and extenuating external circumstances.

During a recent 12 month mentorship, Lane came to the sobering realization that until now, her life had been missing a deeper level of fortitude and faith. The awakening spurred a level of growth in her business, far beyond anything she had previously experienced.

Her biggest piece of advice:

‘Don’t continually seek and pay “experts” once you have a certain level of expertise yourself. Look for the answers within. Trust yourself and your judgment. This means staying informed, flexible, and committed. Delegate activities not within your wheelhouse. Realize your worth and only do what best amplifies and reflects that.’

Michelle has been a part of the journey ever since Bigtime Daily started. As a strong learner and passionate writer, she contributes her editing skills for the news agency. She also jots down intellectual pieces from categories such as science and health.

When the Body Speaks: How Maryna Bilousova Helps Clients Heal Beyond the Physical

Our bodies hold onto what our minds try to forget until they speak up through tension, fatigue, or illness. It’s easy to overlook signs like tight shoulders, restlessness, or headaches. But often, these signals are connected to something deeper. Maryna Bilousova has built her work around helping people listen to what their bodies are really saying.

Like many of her clients, Maryna spent years in a high-stress environment, constantly pushing through. She knew how to perform, meet goals, and keep everything running. But peace was missing. Her body carried the weight of unspoken stress. That realization changed not only her life, it shaped how she supports others today as a transformation coach and subconscious pattern specialist.

Instead of focusing only on what’s visible, Maryna helps people look inward. She works with individuals who feel stuck in cycles they can’t explain, like burnout that does not go away or stress that feels out of proportion. Often, the root is not just a busy schedule. It’s emotional tension that’s been buried and ignored.

Looking Deeper Than Symptoms

Many people come to Maryna after trying traditional methods. They have done meditation apps, therapy sessions, or self-help routines. Still, something feels off. That’s where her work begins, not with fixing, but with listening.

She helps clients connect the dots between their physical symptoms and unresolved emotions. It’s not always about big trauma. Sometimes, it’s small moments that were never processed, guilt, grief, frustration, or shame. Over time, those emotions settle in the body.

Maryna recalls one client, a long-term cancer survivor, who returned years later with ovarian cysts. The physical fear was real, but so was the emotional weight she had been carrying from a past relationship full of betrayal and silence. Through their sessions, they uncovered and released that emotional residue. Weeks later, the cysts were gone. It was a reminder of how deeply the body can reflect our inner state.

Patterns That Keep Us Stuck

Maryna’s approach is not about chasing positivity or trying to fix everything at once. She focuses on patterns, how people speak to themselves, how they respond to stress, how they make decisions. Often, what feels like self-sabotage is actually an old belief playing out.

For example, someone who always avoids conflict might be carrying a belief that their needs don’t matter. Another who keeps overworking may feel that slowing down means they are falling behind. These beliefs often form early and show up in adulthood in ways that quietly run our lives.

Rather than offering surface-level solutions, Maryna holds space for clients to explore what’s really behind their choices. Her calm presence allows people to soften, reflect, and begin making changes that come from clarity, not pressure.

A Path Back to Yourself

The people Maryna works with are not looking for a quick fix. They want to feel lighter, clearer, and more like themselves again. Her clients often say that what changes is not just their mindset, it’s how they feel in their own skin. They start resting without guilt, setting boundaries without apology, and making choices that actually feel good.

Maryna believes that healing is not about doing more. It’s about slowing down enough to notice what your body and mind have been trying to say all along. When people start listening, they stop feeling like they have to fight themselves, and that’s when real change happens.

In a world that pushes us to ignore discomfort and keep going, Maryna offers something different: a place to pause, reflect, and reconnect. Because sometimes, healing does not start with doing, it starts with listening.
