Welcome back to Sugar, Spice & Spirits with Mindy Price, Natalie Pilkinton, and Kelly Williams - where cocktails meet conversations about business, real estate, and life. Today Mindy checks in live from Las Vegas (NAA Apartmentalize) while Natalie and Kelly beam in from Texas. We’re talking when to roll the dice on yourself, how to balance bold action vs. smart preparation, and why waiting to be “ready” may be the biggest risk of all.

Sip of the Day: Mindy’s vodka soda (Tito’s + soda); Natalie tries vodka + Topo Chico Blueberry; Kelly’s riff: blueberry vodka + club soda + lime + a squeeze of lemonade.

What you’ll learn:

• Action vs. readiness: when to jump, when to slow down, and how to avoid skipping critical steps.

• Regret math: why the regret of not trying can sting more than mistakes you learn from.

• Mentors & systems: building support so risks become calculated - not chaotic.

• Entrepreneur mindset: perfectionism, ADHD energy, and practical ways to keep momentum.

• Real estate angle: why “quitting your job to invest” needs a plan, not just hype.

• Community invite: topics you want; awkward JCPenney pics if subscriber goals are met
