We've never done this before, but we sure will do it again:

Instead of our recent edutainment (is that even a word?), this week we're sharing a serious interview. Easy to listen do, lots of great info. May I set the stage? 

Mike DeSiato is a senior pro. He's led an incredibly successful career delivering financial advice, tax planning, and exit planning services. Mike's just moved from Cherry Beakert CPAs to start his own firm Business Transition Specialists. In addition to his many on-point credentials, Mike has completed Growth Drive Specialist certification and the Fearless Business Advisor client workshop facilitator course. He's a super dedicated pro, right? 

So it was a kick to be invited onto Mike's podcast. You should check it out. Here are some time markers that might be helpful guides:

Thanks Mike for the invitation, for your commitment to our profession and to delivering client wins -and for being such a positive force.
