We often hear about work/life balance, but that often misses the mark. In my experience, family and personal goals are pushed to the side in order to satisfy the demands of work. But, what if we didn't think of it as a balance, but more of a target with what matters most in the center?

In this episode I talk on how to overcome apathy and get action!
I’ve noticed a connection between succeeding as an entrepreneur and a desire to teach; to share the knowledge that has helped you get to where you are.

When I launched the Wolf & Iron Store I knew I wanted to carry only USA made products, but, I wasn't aware of some of the challenges that come along with doing so. Growing up in the 80s, as I did, it seemed like everything was made in the US, but as we all know there has been a very big shift to overseas labor and cheaper products. Competition is fierce. However, it's great to see the US getting back in the fight!
