This week we have Rett and Tayler Carraway, the husband and wife duo behind Happy Medium, a modern art supply brand for casual artists. Tayler comes from a background in Merchandising and Rett from Investment Banking. In this episode they walk us through how they got to Happy Medium after several attempts at starting different businesses together, the feeling of returning home to your most authentic self, continuously growing individually and as a couple and why their mission is to give adults the permission to be casual artists.
