I apologize in advance

Kim Bode shrugging her shoulders.

People are the hardest part of what we do.

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.
