In this episode…
Greta Sanchez’s family moved from Mexico City to Cancun when she was very young. Cancun was where she graduated from university and became an entrepreneur in the family business. It wasn’t until after she left entrepreneurship to work as the operations manager of a hotel that she and her husband decided to move to Canada. They planned for five years but when the confirmation came, the move happened quickly.
Greta shares how the decision to move to Canada and the very fast transition into their new life up north defined an act of faith in her life. Rather than fearing the unknown or the difficult, Greta has always embraced opportunity and met challenges head-on. She speaks about how faith in a new future can propel you forward in life.
In this episode of What CEOs Talk About, host Martin Hunter and Greta Sanchez discuss Greta’s story, from working her way through university to opening another branch of the company business on her own to emigrating to Canada. At every step of her journey, Greta has a positive outlook, one that Martin is grateful for in her work alongside him at URGEO now. This episode instructs us all to examine fear and not let it paralyze us, because faith may just have something better in store.
