Let’s be real—sometimes the universe doesn’t whisper, it kicks you straight in the career path.

In this Mailbag episode of Beyond the Bottom Line, we’re answering your real questions about what happens after you've applied to 1,100 jobs and heard back from… basically nobody. Ron and Adrianne dive deep into the unsexy, uncensored truths of launching something on your own—especially when you're over 40, short on time (and cash), and still expected to be the breadwinner, tech expert, and operations guru all at once.

We’re talking:

Why ghosting led to growth (and a business launch)

The lies sold to new entrepreneurs (spoiler: there is no magic marketing bullet)

Fractional support, real infrastructure, and why your HR "heater" isn’t ready for that business addition

The biggest mistake small businesses make when scaling

This isn’t fluff. It’s the advice we wish someone had given us sooner.

Whether you're building, rebuilding, or just realizing the corporate ladder might be missing a few rungs, pull up a chair—we’re breaking it all down.
