I live with the ups, the downs, the peaks, the valleys, and the gratification and occasionally the sheer numbing terror of being a business owner; and I experience all of it, EVERY SINGLE DAY!
As a coach, facilitator and consultant to hundreds of entrepreneurs, the operator of a dozen peer groups and a business owner myself, I spend almost every waking moment discussing the challenges and rewards of owning a business. I eat, sleep and breathe business ownership. I don’t hunt. I don’t fish. I don’t even play golf. Business ownership is both my vocation and my recreation. I think owning a business is the most interesting thing anyone can do.

If you lie awake at 2 AM because you are worried about your business, or just because you are excited about what you will be doing when the rest of the world wakes up, then this is the place for you!
