House Coffee Podcast

Do these phrases sound familiar? "You gotta know your cash flow." "If you don't own your numbers, you don't own your business." "Don't fudge the numbers."

If you're an entrepreneur or creative (or both!) then you have heard these preached from all the gurus. But when you're in the thick of the grind, (or double grind) pausing to understand and get control of your business seems daunting when you are on the verge of burnout.

This week Maggie & Rich introduce the concept of the 25 hour work week and how some businesses have adopted this concept and gained their lives back. If only, right?? While it might seem impossible, Rich challenges Maggie with some of the key points he is learning in his consulting class while Maggie challenges the concept of the 25 hour work week.
