Behind the Scenes with Crystal and Robert


On today’s episode, I give you a behind-the-scenes look at business and life with my partner in crime, Crystal.  We discuss the challenges we faced during the move to compound 2.0, our plans for the future in business and in life, and how our relationship has evolved over the past year. We recorded this episode as a trial run in our brand new podcast studio.
