Thanks for listening, following/subscribing, giving us a good review, and sharing with your friends on social media. It goes a long way!
We had a whole dang episode planned out, but we had so many solid questions that we decided to pivot.! We cover a few really awesome topics like: how do you know who to go into business with? What should your values be? And whenever the three of us are disagreeing on something in our company, how do we debate that? Thank you as always for submitting your questions, and keep them coming.
