It’s crazy to think how fast time flies… 

I woke up to a Facebook memory (thanks Facebook) from August 27th, 2020 when Eddie and I celebrated my retirement and the last day The Cake Mamas was in business. 

Being reminded of that day brought back so many memories. From building the business from nothing, to expanding it too two locations, to pivoting into coaching in 2017, to eventually retiring in 2020. 

It brought on a ton of emotions… but looking back, I’m so glad I made the decision I did. The reality is, my passion for baking and creating was gone. I found myself feeling full and excited when it came to coaching and serving others in the small business space. So that’s what I did. 

Once I retired from the bakery, I devoted my full-time to my coaching business with Eddie and now with over a thousand students and four years later, we’ve learned so much from them that we want to share with you. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed…
