Business lessons from a luxury island retreat
About this episode
Do I have to be posh? “What does one wear to a private island?” 🏝️🤵
I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm New Money (and I’ve made plenty of New Money mistakes) 🤣
So I don't always know what to do in situations when there are other successful or rich people around.
I was recently invited on a thank you trip by my bank for being a valuable customer to a private island resort. It was all very White Lotus minus the raunchiness and killing.
We didn't know what to wear or how to act, so we just tried to be ourselves.
The biggest takeaway from this trip? You can be yourself and still be successful—there's no need to impress anyone.
Have you ever felt out of place in a new environment? How did you stay grounded?
