Ep 203 - In a special live broadcast of The Driven Entrepreneur podcast, I address the elephant in the room, Coronavirus, and what it means for business owners.
Many of my clients and friends (including me!) are entrepreneurs, small business owners, speakers, coaches, and other service providers.
We are about to enter a very tough time, and we need to choose what to focus on.
I say we choose to focus on what we CAN CONTROL.
Please comment if you want a question answered or if you have your own idea to help support small business owners during these business bans.
I hope this helps and inspires you during these difficult days. #Strongerthroughdistance

Ep #198 - My guests this week are Kerry and Adam Anderson, the founders of Whole Life Entrepreneurship, a company that specializes in creating business success through stronger relationships. In today's interview, we dive into the topic of business relationships including how working together as spouses almost ended their marriage when they first got started.

In our conversation, we discuss their process for how to properly bring family into business by treating your family like a "board of directors," even if you're a solopreneur. Adam and Kerry talk about how to share your vision with family, get everyone on the same page, and how to support each other.
