Episode 16 - Building Trust and Community in Business with Staci Millard
Host Jen Kinal dives deep with Staci Millard, founder of the Small Business Club, a mom of two, multi-passionate entrepreneur, investor, board member, podcast host, and philanthropist. Staci shares her journey from overworked and underpaid to building a seven-figure business and helping other entrepreneurs transform the way they approach business. Her philosophy centers on three non-negotiables for success: making money, creating heart-led impact, and living a great life because of your business, not in spite of it.

Overcoming Fear of Numbers: Why understanding your finances is crucial and how it can lead to business freedom.
 
Breaking Free from Burnout: Staci’s journey to reclaiming her time and mental energy.
 
Profitability Made Simple: Practical steps to identify your expenses, increase profitability, and work smarter, not harder.
