February 23, 2026 Contractor Cents - Episode 414 - Get Out of the Weeds and Into Your Genius
Are you stuck in the weeds – working in your business rather than investing
time to work on your business? Do you have the “I wanna’s”:
I wanna grow, I wanna spend more time with my family, I don’t want to
have to worry about cash, or whatever your “I wanna” is.
Angela Chanowsky, Creator of Your Unique Genius, gives you the roadmap to
get out of the weeks and achieve the goals you want to achieve.
