In today’s episode, I am interviewing two great businesswomen Ashley and Brittany Silfies, the co-owners and creators of Pink Picasso and Modern Monet.  Both companies are owned and run by a woman-owned team with a goal of providing a beautiful, quality product.

Ashley and Brittany started the company in the middle of a personal crisis, and so many things were crumbling around them. However, neither allowed the chaos to take over what they knew their purpose was. At the time, Brittany worked hard to provide for their new family. On the other hand, Ashley was very aware she would not cut it. She was taking care of their youngest daughter and two other little children. Ashley would sit in that apartment looking at a white wall, and it was in looking at that white wall that she got the inspiration for her business. 

If you are looking forward to starting a business, or you are in a business that you are already questioning why you started it since it is not yet paying off, it is a beautiful reminder that things that are most rewarding are also the most challenging. As a business owner for 13 years, Ashley and Brittany resonate with me so deeply at that level. Not even considering the personal aspects the two of them were trying to overcome this time. Listen up as they share some advice to a business owner, someone starting a business, or even a life change.
