Ever since I decided to start a podcast, I knew Mona would be a first guest. We met when our baby boys were just 3 and 6 months old. Then it was drooling, rolling and cooing and now nearing 8 years old - between their social calendars, sports, music and school, these boys friendship has not only grown, but evolved into family; not dissimilar from their momma’s. Mona has offered guidance to me across many areas of life including business, family, accountability and personal growth to name but a few and you better believe I have graciously lapped up every drop of it. Occasionally I even get to bestow my own knowledge onto her too, which is always super fun and exciting. I am thrilled to share a piece of this human with you. Learn about Mona and the gifts she has for the world; and listen in as I even discover some of the “why” behind her valiant, kind and exemplary leader and mentorship.

Everyone has a story. This is part of Mona’s. Not just about where she’s going or where she has been - but how she chooses to get there, through kindness and compassion.

Thanks for being here,

Em
