  • Why a Podcast?

    Why a podcast? Why would I start Mirth and Company with something so simple? Because I can’t draw. One of the best parts about being an entrepreneur (or aspiring) is that you do not need to ask permission. You can pursue any idea that you have and are able to pursue. There are a number…

    The Next Step (then the next one) – Build the Vector

    The first step is the most important. I just wrote about it, including an amazing quote from Lord of the Rings!  But is it? What about the other thousand miles (or shall we assume a step is about a foot and its more like 5,280,000 steps)? All it takes is one step to get started…

    Mirth and Company: the Way Forward

    My main goal of EntreBurnor is to journal the development of our different companies and brands.

  • Mirth and Company

    Entreburnor is about the journey our family will take through various entrepreneurial endeavors. Setting out to build businesses and brands was not necessarily always the plan, especially not in the midst of adopting two newborns, in two separate adoption actions, at the same time, but life is rarely about the expected and mundane. For my…
