You learn a trade, start a business, and just keep going on your own. You can't talk with your employees, your spouse doesn't understand, and you're too busy to chat with other professionals in your field because you are always on the tools. This is no way to run a business or be a part of one. We are meant to be life-long learners. There is a reason the saying iron sharpens iron is still around and used. We need to surround ourselves with individuals who will push us to new heights.

In January of 2022, Crystal Sims was in Las Vegas competing in the National Installer of the Year competition. She had huge support from her amazing family and fellow employees at Preferred Flooring. She was the talk of the show being the only woman to ever compete in the competition to this day. She had no idea what life had in store for her. She was able to meet Shannon Vogel of Reach Social and an instant connection happened. While family and friends were potting to make this chance meeting into something more Crystal had already decided to ask Shannon to mentor her and that was that.

Now a year and half later, the two have remained in constant contact, and Crystal isn't the only one on the receiving end. Listen in as we learn from these two phenomenal ladies why you need to be a mentor and a mentee. There are advantages to being on both sides of the coin and you can only gain all the useful nuggets by listening to this week's episode of the Floor Academy Podcast.
