Ep. 291: Gratitude, Tools, and Two Black Friday Gifts Just for You
As business owners, we are brave.
We are gritty.
We are the ones who raise our hands and say, “Hey, I’ll be the one to lead. I’ll open the storefront. I’ll be the one who takes the risk.”
We are gritty.

Ep. 283: From Chaos to Clarity: Avoid the Money Pitfalls That Crush Small Businesses—with Megan Schwan

Inside this episode, I’m breaking down:
✨ How delegating led to record-breaking results
✨ The mindset shift that helped me really trus…
