Golden Nuggets:


  • “I learned a lot about how important it is to listen to what the people that are using the space need for that space and how every family is different.”
  • “Marketing and branding has taken my business into a completely different direction than I could have ever imagined that it would have. I mean, it's really what, what created me to kind of niche down into the space that I'm in now.”
  • “I had somebody tell me, you know, you're never going to be ready, whether you plan it, or you don't plan it, or it's a surprise or what have you. You're never going to be fully ready. And then you know, it's been reiterated throughout my lifetime, right? It's so many things. You're never ready to own a house. You're never ready to start a business. You're never ready to scale your business. You just have to tear up those bootstraps and just make it work.”
