Max shares his journey from working in corporate America to growing his family’s landscaping business and eventually founding a bookkeeping franchise. Key Takeaways: "You can’t build a business and care what people think about you at the same time, because somebody is always going to have a problem with it." - Amber Fuhriman "People assume that because you have a title—lawyer, accountant, business owner—that you suddenly know everything. The truth is, we’re all just figuring it out as we go." - Amber Fuhriman "I used to take rejection personally, but I learned that 'no' just means I’m one step closer to a 'yes'." - Max Emma "I realized I was the bottleneck of my own business—I was trying to do everything at once instead of delegating." - Max Emma If you are interested in connecting with Amber, send an email to amber@amberfuhriman.com .
