This is a minisode and a community question episode! A Community Question episode is made up of voice notes submitted by listeners. I asked you to share the best and worst parts of being a business owner and a huge thank you to everyone who participated.

This is our second community question episode and I’m really excited about it. Most episodes involve a long-form interview with a woman-in-business where we chat about their story and the ups and downs of being a business owner, so it's really fun it involved more voices in this short episode.

Today's episode is going to look a little bit different. Usually, each episode features an interview with a different badass woman in business, but this episode is special because I asked you to be part of the conversation.

In this episode, you’ll hear from a handful of listeners who submitted voice notes through social media and clips from our previous guests. Get ready this episode is just literally back-to-back encouragement and advice, and I think it’s a great way to end the year.
