Kim Bode shrugging her shoulders.

People are the hardest part of what we do.

Kim Bode points to a scene from the video game Oregon Trail that reads, "You have died from dysentery."

Get in loser we're going to die of dysentery

People are the hardest part of what we do as business owners; with it being Small Business Week, it seemed like a good time to remind people that this sh*t is really, really hard. We are dealing with a crappy economy, talent issues and we’re just trying to survive.

You can’t fix everything. It’s why I created Skills Survival School. If your employees understand you, the opportunities for growth within your company and how to be successful; we all have a better shot at survival.

First cohort kicks off in June. Enroll at the link in my bio.

A little photo shoot to start the week off; I won’t share the amount of outfits but it ensured I don’t have to do this any time soon again.

✔️Speaker & marketing photos
✔️ Dragged @jurgens22 along for fun

How it started vs how it ended🍺 The last 4 months (who am I kidding), 3 years have been hard. Really, really f*cking hard and I’ve made it hard on everyone around me. I don’t deserve this team or these people but I sure am glad to have them.
