This Espresso Shot is really no surprise. Nicoa takes a moment to just acknowledge that yes, LIFE CAN SUCK sometimes! Even a Life By Design!  Take a moment to reflect with her about sitting with what SUCKS and then figure out a way to move on... knowing that 'feeling good' matters more than sitting in what SUCKS in order to find satisfaction in your life! REMEMBER, it's not that you go there, it's how long do you stay there!

Nicoa is so excited to share this episode where she interviews the phenomenal Maari Casey,  Founder and CEO of Uncompany, wife, mother and sister to an amazing brother who happens to have Downs Syndrome. Maari shares her whirlwind of a life story throwing her and her husband, literally, for an absolute loop and how coming up for air she was led to design a solution for herself, and her family, that ended up helping 1000's of others find new ways to work on their own terms! Or, as she calls it, offering a third door of options to create a Life By Design! 

Maari is an ad-agency art director turned freelancer turned entrepreneur. In 2015, Maari launched Uncompany to create a “soft place to land” for freelancers looking to connect for community, education and opportunities - as well as trusted resource for clients looking to grow, and scale their teams into a truly HYBRID workforce with freelance talent.
