Adrienne's guest today is Elizabeth Kramer, a multi-passionate serial entrepreneur. Her deep operational experience in large corporations allowed her to navigate through different industries, across different types of careers, and then ultimately to embrace entrepreneurship, as she always dreamed of. Elizabeth shares her amazing stories on purchasing a business - and the criteria she used - instead of building them from zero. During the pandemic, Elizabeth decided to create a business of her own to inspire, and empower women by uplifting them through coaching with no-bullshit advice.
