Selling my business was no easy decision. There were months of discussions, months of debate and a lot figuring out what we wanted in life. On today’s episode Brian and I chat about what led to selling my business, why we felt it was the right decision for us and some of the many things I am excited about coming up for Abacus Wealth Partners.
