“The experience of working for a boss makes you realize how an employee feels,” recalled employee-turned-business-owner Zzlleenn Lee.

Zzlleenn’s twenties were all about her becoming a financially-independent adult and being her own boss. To gain experience, she first worked as a financial advisor, before taking on the added responsibility of managing her family’s Morato-based comfort food restaurant, The Frazzled Cook.

In our latest episode of Inside the Industry, we talk to Zzlleenn about lessons from both lines of work, as well as advice for fellow business owners on how to remain financially stable amid a pandemic.
