Ep. 188 - Practical Tips for Adulting in the Real World with Author and Entrepreneur Josh Burnette

Josh Burnette noticed a striking connection between his Chick-fil-A employee’s performance at work and their lack of personal, basic life skills. Josh has owned and operated a Chick-fil-A for over a decade and started working there as a teen. He began mentoring his young staff in baseline adult skills, like balancing a checkbook, paying bills, and budgeting finances. As he equipped his team to organize and manage daily tasks, their work performance skyrocketed. The positive feedback from his employees inspired Josh to help other future business owners throughout the country. His two stellar books, Adulting 101 - Book One and Adulting 101 - Book Two, gives teens and adults the tools they need to facilitate discussions and action steps necessary in preparation for adulthood.
