In the November episode of Mind Yo' Business, recorded in the Ruoff Mortgage Podcast Studio in partnership with Karan Rastall (NMLS#763395), Andrew sits down with Diana Thomas, the Sales Director of the brand-new POSH Boutique Hotel on Kirkwood Avenue. What unfolds is not just a story about hospitality and career success—but one of grit, growth, and grace under pressure. Diana opens up about growing up as an only child in a single-parent household, navigating the responsibilities of adulthood far earlier than most. She shares how those early experiences shaped her work ethic, her empathy, and her ability to connect with others. From getting married young, going through a divorce, to raising three daughters, Diana talks candidly about the challenges of balancing single motherhood, pursuing education, and building a career while being the role model her daughters needed. Now leading sales efforts at one of Bloomington's most stylish and talked-about new hotels, Diana reflects on what it took to get here, the moments that nearly broke her, and the ones that reminded her of her strength. Her story is raw, relatable, and deeply inspiring—perfect for anyone who's ever wondered how to juggle it all and still reach for something more. Whether you're in business, hospitality, or simply love hearing about real people making real moves, this episode reminds us that success often starts with survival—and gets sweeter from there.
