## Resource

Big careers aren't built on titles, they're built on decisions. This week on I Am Home, Jeff Cohen - Chairman of six Berkshire Hathaway companies and CEO of three, including Fruit of the Loom, Star Furniture, and Larson-Juhl - joins the conversation to unpack a career that spans some of the most influential companies in business. He shares the moments that shaped his leadership style, the realities of running and transforming businesses, as well as the tradeoffs that come with operating at the highest level. It's a thoughtful, behind-the-scenes look at what it means to build, lead and evolve over time. Resources: nfm.com/podcast
