Ordinary To Badass

Ordinary To Badass

By Marie Sonneman

What if you could learn from real-life Badasses and hear about their wins and losses, habits and practices that have gotten them to where they are now? Instead of making the mistakes yourself, you can learn from others who have already gone through it; then, take massive action and grow quicker than you would on your own. That’s what we strive for every week on the Ordinary to Badass Podcast.
