Summary

In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on something that’s been a total game-changer for our business — securing a line of credit. We’ll share why we finally made the move, what the process looked like, and how it’s giving us more flexibility to grow, invest, and operate with confidence. If you’ve ever wondered how business financing works or when it’s the right time to tap into credit, this episode breaks it all down. Real talk, real numbers, and lessons we wish we knew sooner.
