I had the pleasure of speaking with the Business Development Manager & Team Lead for Ontario, Sarah Pick. Sarah and I discussed the services that Futurpreneur offers, relief information during COVID-19, and how they've taken key events virtually. Sarah provides some key ideas on time management and how to stay motivated. It's a great episode fill with a lot of valuable information to hear. Here is her information if you want to speak to from the organization. Sarah Pick
