In this episode, Mary encourages accompanying partners who want meaningful careers to start with their strengths, pursue what they love, and consider buying a business rather than building one from the ground up. She also shares the struggles she's faced while starting a travel business in a global pandemic, and the personal lessons she's learned along the way.
