My new direction of the show continues this week as Mike Howard of Lean Minded returns for Part 2 of a 4-Part series.

Back To “Why”

Several years ago, I had the pleasure of working with a client by the name of Mark who has since moved away from this area. During our time working together, Mark had made a comment that has stuck with me ever since. Historically, he liked to hit the golf course with his friends and afterwards […]
