Between the Head and the Heart

In today's episode, we chatted with LWM President and co-founder Kristine Porcaro. We discussed one of the things many entrepreneurs and business owners have been chatting amongst themselves even through these difficult times, which is the silver linings that having time at home has brought. Entrepreneurs tend to spend time outside the family circle more often than others due to the nature of their work, but the COVID-19 crisiS has changed that dynamic and as Kris mentions, it might be here to stay. We hope you enjoy this uplifting conversation with Kristine about the future and what she sees coming next.   If you have any questions after listening to this episode, feel free to reach out to us at info@lexingtonwealth.com and we will respond directly to your questions.

Jeff's perspective is unique, as he sees different industries' trends due to the nature of his business and the time of the year we are in...tax season.
