Summary

There's nothing like a chat with Mindy Kyle. She's one of my favorite stepmom coaches in the space and she's also my business coaching client. We get real right from the start. I share a breakdown I had right before we hit record. We get into the stepmom advice I don't agree with. The truth about adult stepkids. And the small but powerful tweaks we made to her coaching business that helped her crush her goals.
