My husband and I are in the middle of house renovations, and we’re rediscovering just how important it is to stay tight and connected when things are super-stressful and frustrating. Like a nerd that I am, I immediately thought: hey, this also applies to business! In this mini-episode, I talk about building a connected, empowered team, why you should never waste a crisis, my favorite business book, and why sometimes it’s good that everything falls apart. Check out the show notes for the full list of topics I cover!
