Small businesses across the US and the world have been hit hard by the effects of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However, many businesses have found ways to be creative with their business and have found experienced an outpouring of support from their communities. Austin Harvey '04 knows this well. Austin is an advanced cicerone and the curator and co-owner of employee-owned Beermiscuous, a Chicago craft beer bar and retailer. Chicago's shelter-in-place order went into effect two weeks after Austin and his colleagues purchased the bar from the founder.
In this episode, Austin shares the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) on his business and the strong bond between the bar and the community. He also dives into his perspective on work, and alleviating some of the pressures that come with our society's definition of success and education.
