Episode 187: Starting a Mastermind with Aaron Walker

Today on the podcast I’m introducing you to my new friend, Aaron Walker. Aaron started his first business at 18 and sold it to a Fortune 500 company nine years later. Since then he has started 12 other widely successful companies and now he is coming on The Jennifer Allwood Show to share his wisdom and expertise with all of us. What I love about Aaron is that even though he has had so much financial success, he knows without relational significance—it doesn’t matter. This conversation inspired me soooo much as I am on my business journey and I know it will for you as well!
