Welcome back to The In-Between Podcast! I am thrilled to welcome my ride-or-die, Katheryn from Balunz by Kat. In our heartfelt conversation, Kat opens up about her journey from working at Baskin Robbins and Chipotle to creating her successful balloon business. She discusses her competitive spirit influenced by her Hispanic upbringing, the challenges of managing both a full-time job and a side hustle, and the pivotal moment she decided to pursue her passion full-time. We delve into the importance of building genuine client relationships, transparency in business, and how she navigates the highs and lows of entrepreneurship. Kat's story is a testament to resilience and a source of inspiration for anyone in the 'in-between' phase of following their dreams.
