EP #265 -This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Andie Monet, Business Strategist, Speaker, and Consultant to organizations like NASA as we discuss My Mom Abandoned me at 16 so I Started a Business.

 Andie Monet, the "Take Action" Business Solutions Doctor, helps small businesses diagnose systemic challenges in business growth and finances, and customizes a treatment plan so owners can move from fear and confusion to clarity, confidence, and a thriving business today and for the long-term.
