Welcome back to Franchise Interviews! We have a fantastic show lined up for you today. Joining us is Todd Leff, the CEO and President of Hand & Stone. He's diving deep into how they've mastered the wellness industry by providing top-tier, personalized therapeutic massages, alongside a look at the history and growth of the organization.

But that's not all—later in the show, we’re featuring our very own 'Diamond' Don Johnson from a recent CBS Radio interview. Don is breaking down his absolute favorite topic: the ins and outs of franchise financing. You won't want to miss it, so let's jump right in!

Through our weekly franchise radio show and podcast, Franchise Interviews has built a library of more than 1,000 franchise interviews featuring leading franchisors, franchise experts, franchise attorneys, franchisees, consultants, and authors. Each episode provides insights into franchising, entrepreneurship, leadership, and business growth. Listen to more episodes at www.franchiseinterviews.com.

Dr. Martin McDermott is also the author of Rock Star MBA, a book that explores the lessons learned from rock stars, musicians, actors, artists, and other creative professionals. Drawing from decades of interviews and research, Dr. McDermott discovered that many successful performers have developed valuable insights on leadership, entrepreneurship, marketing, creativity, and personal growth. Many of the insights featured in Rock Star MBA originated from conversations and interviews conducted through Franchise Interviews. Rock Star MBA challenges readers to see art and business not as opposites, but as complementary ways of understanding innovation, value creation, and human connection.
