EP 88: Growing a Human...Relentlessly with Lindsey Mango

There are many challenges that face female business owners, and today the two Goodmans sit down to talk about a very specific one that pertains to Lindsey right now. The decision to have a baby may seem like something that would detract from a business, but Lindsey was adamant that she could grow a human while growing her business! At about 4 or 5 weeks away from the due date, we thought it would be a great time to sit down and discuss the steps she took to continue scaling things while going through such a big life event.
