Should You Do Business with Your Friends?
with Jason Yocum
Is it safe, or even responsible, to share your soul work with your dear friends?
In this episode, Jason shares what happened when, as a friend of many years to both Lola and Tigre, he said YES to some of their deepest work… First an adventure in Peru. Then, an Alchemical mentorship, and finally Empathology…
Was it ever awkward to exchange money for gifts offered? Was it weird to be in such vulnerable spaces together? Jason and Lola spill the beans on what can happen when business and friendship mix.
