Navigating the unknowns and road blocks on the dimly-lit path to fulfilling a creative dream can be frustrating and lonely.
If you’ve ever felt alone in the dark on your small business journey, Maggie Fromm and Rich Sarnacki are friends who know the feeling! They also know that the path can be made a little brighter when a friend offers a candle in the dark.
Often that brightness comes through conversation and the comfort of sharing a cup of coffee with someone who gets it. So let Maggie and Rich pour you a cup!
House Coffee Podcast invites you to join your friends Maggie and Rich as they share stories from their lives as small business owners. The goal? To leave you feeling understood and supported in anything you’re going through as you pursue your own creative dream. Business ownership is never easy! We all need a place to be real about it.
And when you have friends like Maggie and Rich who understand you, commiserate with you and celebrate the wins with you, the path can seem that much brighter.
