In this solo episode of the Disruptive Franchise podcast, I reflect on my journey through this year, particularly focusing on the Disruptive Franchise Awards and the insights gained from that amazing experience.
I chat about the importance of visibility, innovation, and the need to embrace both failure and success in entrepreneurship, and share with you my aspirations for 2026, including the launch of a new agency aimed at helping young entrepreneurs enter the franchising world!
