Today’s episode is a little different as I take you along with me for my unfiltered coaching session with Eric Partaker. Eric is an entrepreneur, author, and CEO Coach, named "CEO of the Year" at the 2019 Business Excellence Forum. Over the last 20 years, he has advised Fortune 50 CEOs, founded several companies and helped build Skype’s multi-billion dollar success story.

In this session, we discuss whether or not I should kill “our golden goose”, what my goals are moving forward and what challenges we are facing as a business. I hope you enjoy!
