Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
Lori Harder on Pivoting in Business and Reinventing Your Mindset for Success | Entrepreneurship | YAPClassic
21 Feb 2025
At a pool party, little Lori Harder got up on the diving board only to hear her peers chanting “Whale!” And just like that, she went from a bubbly child to one who hid because of her body. Refusing to accept that her size was genetic, she threw herself into the world of fitness. Through relentless hard work, she became a 3-time fitness world champion, gracing the covers of fitness magazines. But she didn’t stop there. She built a successful fitness brand and has since excelled at other businesses. In this episode, Lori shares her journey of reinventing herself time and time again, including lessons on rebounding from failure and pivoting in business.
