239 My Business isn’t WORKING (& what to do about it) | Colin Matthews, Intuitive Counsel

As an entrepreneur, there are a million decisions that need to be made on a daily basis.

Some of these are small and insignificant (what should I post on social today), but others can have a major impact on the future of your business (aka when should I throw in the towel and call it quits on a business that isn’t working)

When you're faced with a big decision, it can be difficult to know what the right course of action is. This is where inner clarity comes in.

Taking the time to connect with your inner wisdom will help you to see the situation more clearly and make decisions that are in alignment with your values and goals.

inner clarity is not something that you can force or fake, but it is something that you can cultivate through practice. And this is the expertise of Intuitive Counselor, Colin Matthews.

234 How to Build a Family Chocolate EMPIRE - Mid-Day Squares

Midday Squares is a Canadian Snacking Chocolate Company based out of Montreal, founded by Jake Karls, Lezlie Karls, and Nick Saltarelli (yes, they are family!)

Sitting down with Midday Squares for an interview was a dream come true! I had followed their work for years, I snack on their products daily, and I eat up their content because it's so damn good. They are leaders in the food and bev space not only because of a high quality product, but also because they are transparently sharing the behind the scenes of building their business: documenting the highs (aka getting listed in walmart) and the lows (spending 2 years and tons of money to develop a new flavour, only to have it flop).

It was an honor to sit down and record this episode LIVE in Toronto with a studio audience.

I know that our conversation will be one that you guys LOVE and many of you have been obsessed with MDS for years, like me, so I hope you enjoy this conversation!
