Athena Dobson breaks down why most people feel behind in property and business. She exposes the comparison trap, shows why training alone doesn’t create success in property, and explains how focusing on your own journey and timing is the key to real progress. Athena also shares her ‘snakes and ladders’ theory, showing how setbacks, unexpected challenges and the timing of opportunities shape your journey.
