Twenty years ago last week, I packed everything I owned into my car and left Florida. I was 24 years old, chasing a massive dream of working behind the scenes in the music industry, and convinced my destiny was waiting for me in San Diego, CA. Fortunately, I didn’t have to make that 3,000-mile drive… Continue reading The Next Turn: Removing Your Business Roadblocks
