In this episode, Kristy and I talk about body positivity, the importance of self-acceptance, and what it means to be comfortable in your own skin. If you follow Kristy's Instagram, you know there is something about her page that says “you are welcome here”.  In fact, when I was doing my research for this interview, I realized that right below her tagline it says "Your new internet BFF, big sis, or mom". That feels like it couldn’t be more true! There’s something about her that makes people just want to be around her! She has done such an excellent job of creating a safe space and I’m so excited to have her end off season one of the show!  

Come hang out with us!

In this episode, Ana discusses how she pivoted from being an Instagram Influencer to starting a product-based business. What I love about this interview, is that Ana shares the ups and downs of being an entrepreneur, and the foresight she had in creating a business that contributes to change for all of the stakeholders- the customer, communities, and the environment. If you have ever thought about starting your own product (or service) based business, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
