How to build a business that you would be proud to share with others?
Kickass Boomer, Lisa Kipps-Brown, will answer this question and discuss other important topics about business, technology, and mindset.
Lisa grew up with a blind father who made her realize that nothing is impossible as long as you try to find a way. This has influenced her greatly when she started her own business in the 1990s and decided to be an advisor for aspiring business owners.
A self-proclaimed “disruptive entrepreneur,” Lisa joins us in this episode to break stereotypes and preconceived notions that have kept boomers from exploring the things they are passionate about.
