Today's episode is all about dealing with dummies. Yep, those frustrating encounters that make us question if common sense is really all that common.

In our conversation today, I had a real eye-opening moment as I chatted with someone who experienced a microaggression at work. This woman had a brilliant initiative to present, but a male colleague swooped in, interrupted, and set the tone for the entire meeting. Talk about frustrating!

We're also diving into a discussion around loyalty in low-paying jobs and the concept of those "golden handcuffs" that keep people hooked on well-paying corporate gigs, even if they're not happy. We're shaking things up and challenging the status quo by asking: Is a minimum wage of $15 an hour really enough?

Newsflash: No, it's not but neither is paying a receptionist $70,000? So what should small business owners do when it comes to compensating their top employees?

But hey, I'm not all seriousness and rants ova here. Wait till you hear what transexual comedian, Flame Monroe said about responding to negativity. It's absolutely golden.

As always my focus remains on helping women make money and improve their sales skills. At first, I thought I just needed to teach them practical sales techniques, but boy was I wrong. There are deeper reasons why success eludes them, and we're here to unpack those reasons and find solutions.

So, buckle up, my friends. We've got a jam-packed episode that'll leave you entertained, empowered, and ready to knock out those dummies in your life. Let's dive in!
