  • Blown away!

    I just found this podcast last night. I was searching for entrepreneur podcasts and came across this one. When I say value bombs have been dropped on every podcast I’ve listened to so far, I had to come and write a review. The icing on the cake is that I haven’t heard any PAID ADS!!! Thank you for that, and that’s another reason I wanted to write a review, bc I was able to listen without being interrupted every few minutes. I’m loving it 🤩

  • Love this

    If you like Curtis Jackson’s audio biography (if you haven’t tried it you should) this has the same calm common sense golden nuggets of advice, but more relevant to small business owners, it’s brilliant!
