One of the agendas of this show is to talk with small business owners who’re not only growing their businesses, but also battling the notion that there is a silver bullet. And if you haven’t found it yet…you’re doing something wrong.

Stephanie has a way of preaching reality and slow growth and alignment while also amping you up and not bursting your bubble.
