Awesome guests and valuable insights

Christine has carefully selected very knowledgable and experienced guests. Christine's questions are thoughfu and carefully planned. She is brilliant at getting to the essence of what is required to start and run a business as a teacher. This is a great podcast - share it with anyone you know who is a teacher - they will appreciate it.
