    So glad to have stumbled upon this! I’m in the very early stages of starting my small business, and so far this podcast has been the most helpful. The trio are enjoyable to listen to, they have my full attention for the entire duration, they’re funny, and I like that they’re in different parts of the country to share their own experiences and insight. I’ve learned so much. Keep posting! Maybe one day I can be a guest 😊
