YouTube Description
as posted by the channelI love California. Really, But these days, it feels like loving California is like loving someone who keeps setting your stuff on fire. My guest this week is Elaine Culotti—developer, farmer, entrepreneur, and one of the few people I know who loves this state even more than I do. You might know her as the “Lipstick Farmer” or from Undercover Billionaire. While thousands are fleeing the madness, Elaine’s staying put—not out of denial but out of determination to fix what’s broken. We talk about what’s gone wrong—the fires, the red tape, the incentives that make it easier to leave than to lead—and why, despite it all, some of us are still here.
If you've ever loved a place that stopped loving you back, you’ll want to watch this.
