Today I have my friend Jadah Sellner back on the podcast. The last time I had Jadah on the show, she and I discussed how she created Simple Green Smoothies with her partner Jen Hansard. But since then, Jadah has exited that company and is now on a mission to help others build sustainable small businesses without burning out.
