Lauren Sanderson joins us this week to cover some great topics. We talk about her giving a TED talk at an early age, where she gets her incredible mindset and work ethic from, her experience going from an indie label, to a major, then to being fully independent.


We also do a bonus Q&A round at the end with all fan submitted questions.
