Welcome to The Main Thing. This is your new 9-minute podcast. I’m your host Skip Lineberg. My guest today is Kristen Buckley White. 

Kristen has spent 20 years in the entertainment industry working across large global brands such as Nickelodeon, Comedy Central and TV Land. Her career spans senior executive roles in programming, marketing and creative leadership. 

Kristen always had an entrepreneurial side, and she left the corporate world to join a start up a few years ago. Even though that start up didn't work out, she is grateful for the experience and continues to pursue new business opportunities.

In her spare time, she can be found baking, entertaining friends and binge watching the latest hit show. Kristen is a wife and the proud mother Emmett and Phoebe, who light up her world. And she is one of the wisest people I know.

Over the next nine minutes, you will find out what unique bit of wisdom Kristen has chosen to share with us.
