Cory Keen joins us this week to share the lessons he’s learned in building and scaling a company from nothing to a massive success.

We focused on talking about the middle part of that journey and how to overcome the challenges that come with the success of a growing business, while also still keeping things light and fun.

This was a super insightful one that I think everyone will get a ton out of! If you do, share it with a friend and spread the word!
