How Faith and Discipline Shape Success | Nicholas Sakha

Описание: What happens when discipline alone isn’t enough... and faith becomes the anchor?

In this episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with entrepreneur and insurance agency owner Nicholas Sakha for a deeply grounded conversation about faith, discipline, responsibility, and the inner work that shapes lasting success.

Nicholas shares his story of growing up in a large family, taking on responsibility at a young age, and learning how faith, structure, and trust carried him through moments when his back was against the wall. Together, Meg and Nicholas explore parenting, balance, intuition, prayer, and the courage it takes to take the first step before you have all the answers.
