3 KEY HIGHLIGHTS

1.  Know your worth!  Walk into any room with the understanding that you're supposed to be there, and you deserve to be there. 

2.  So many aspiring entrepreneurs chase exposure without  having systems in place to capitalize on the attention.  Develop your systems first and then pursue eyes.

3.  Tonya's advice for improving your finances- "Sit down and be honest with yourself on where you are and where you want to go."  You need to be crystal clear on what you want to do and block out the opinions of others; including your parents.
