Mind Your Business Radio Show

By Mind Your Business Radio Show

Mind Your Business is a show for entrepreneurs hosted by an entrepreneur, multiple time failure and 2 time winner David Happe. The show is all about the business of business, and how to start something that can free you from the daily grind. Expect the show to be real, raw and unfiltered. The show is absolutely "NSFW" (not suitable for work) not because of the language, but because of the overarching theme of "Quit your job... Start Your Life."

Mind Your Business will be either live (with guests, callers and live chat) or prerecorded podcast released Saturday mornings at 11AM Eastern time in the United States. You can also follow along in-between episodes on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/mybradio
