31: Show Them the Ladder
Kristin Howard did not see herself as an outgoing leader... until she realized she had become one. Kristin's self-awareness and grit took her from a W2 job to becoming the Multiple Center Owner of The UPS Stores in Fenton, Monroe, and Ypsilanti. Along the way, she survived a harrowing accident, had twins, and experienced the kind of personal and professional growth we love to celebrate on this podcast. So today, we hear Kristin's story, and dig deep into the why behind this unstoppable leader. Enjoy!
