Welcome back to the Wealth Within Reach podcast, Season 3!

In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Hurley, founder of EPYC Media and host of the Rich In Real Life podcast, for a real and spirited conversation about what it actually takes to transition from corporate America to full-time entrepreneurship.

Jessica opens up about her journey—from the fears and doubts to the pivotal mindset changes that made all the difference. Forget the perfect plan—success in business is about staying adaptable, solving problems as they come, and trusting your own vision (even when no one else does). It’s in the power of creating your own rules, standing out in a crowded room, and maintaining transparency with clients to foster trust and growth.

It’s time to stop waiting and start building the life and business you were meant for.

“God will not give you a vision, allow you to conceptualize, or give you a vision that’s not already yours. You just have to decide to walk into it.” – Jessica Hurley
