  • Not just a coffee podcast

    I started listening to this podcast because I loved coffee. It has taught me more about business than coffee. They bring in such a great perspective to how to run a business or even a team. I am accountant who oversees a small team and I use insight and strategies from this podcast to help me be a better leader and mentor to my employees. Thanks Chris, Chuck and Jared.
