My guest today is Kari Warberg Block. While we had technical difficulties during the recording, I enjoyed my conversation with her. Her words inspired me, and I am sure they will inspire you, too.

Kari began her entrepreneurial journey as a farmwife with an annual income of just $18,000. Despite limited resources, she identified a gap in the market and saw the potential to build a successful business.

Kari revolutionized the industry by introducing non-toxic pest control solutions through her unwavering determination, innovative approach, and successful lobbying efforts in Washington, D.C.. Today, Kari has transformed her small pest control business into a $360 million empire.

Kari's story inspires aspiring entrepreneurs, demonstrating that anyone can achieve extraordinary success with passion, perseverance, and vision.

Even more, Kari is known by most as a #KindnessRebel, which means caring enough to stand up and speak up for yourself. www.earthkind.com

This track was made by my daughter, Jasmine. She is my why for everything I do.
