From Crumbs to Mogul w/ Megan Whitaker

Today I am speaking with Megan Whitaker with Crumbs to Moguls. Crumbs to Moguls is a non-profit created by Megan and inspired by her personal struggles as an entrepreneur. Support is a luxury and many entrepreneurs starting out do not have the money, resources or support to help them fulfill their potential. Megan talks about this and teaches you how you can become a mogul. We also touch on mental health which is a serious medical issue that impacts many Americans. In our community, mental illness is often stigmatized and this hinders people from getting the proper help and education to support themselves and others.
