296: Unlocking Success: The Power of Changing Questions with April Stroink

Profit by Design

As business owners and entrepreneurs, we have many questions running in a loop in our heads. Most of those are judger questions that limit our scope of achievement and keep us stuck. Dr. Sabrina welcomes April Stroink to the podcast, and April shares her incredible story of using one of Tap the Potential’s most popular tools, the Choice Map, to turn her worst year in business into her best year. The key to changing her outcomes was changing the questions she asked herself. Join us for this powerful conversation with April!

April Stroink is a money coach, financial advisor, and certified Profit First professional who specializes in helping people create and enjoy financial well-being in their business and personal lives.
