Why Listen to Us?

I’m passionate about helping small businesses learn from my successes and failures. Throughout my journey, from building and selling two startups to holding senior executive roles, I’ve gained a wealth of experience that I want to share with you. I understand the pressure of making payroll on Fridays and the challenges of growing your small business while managing day-to-day operations.

In this podcast, I’ll be sharing practical advice and real stories from my own experiences and those of our amazing guests. These insights will help you navigate your business journey, whether starting or looking to grow.
