Your Next Stop with Juliet Hahn

"Don't quit five minutes before the miracle." - Paul "Paulie" Veneto

Retired United Airlines flight attendant Paul "Paulie" Veneto walked a beverage cart from Boston to Ground Zero in New York City to honor the flight attendants and other crew members killed on 9/11.

Paulie's initial intention was to make sure the world honored and remembered his colleagues, the men, and women of Flight 175. This journey was for them. It was also a way for him to remind the victims' families their loved ones were not forgotten.

However, Paulie quickly discovered that he was impacting the lives of countless others who followed him on his journey. During his time on the road, people would walk alongside him and share personal stories about their lives, particularly the struggles they faced.

Paulie had a GPS on the beverage cart so people could track exactly what street he was on from Boston all the way to lower Manhattan.

At one point, Paulie recalled a woman driving to his exact location in the rain so she could tell him the story of how her daughter donated a kidney to her. No one, including Paulie's friends who followed alongside him in a Jeep and RV, expected this to happen.

Flight attendants that Paulie once worked with and many of his family members joined him for the final mile in Manhattan. It wasn't an easy task Paulie, but it was something he felt "obligated to do."

He arrived at Ground Zero at 1:15 p.m. on September 11.

Listen to a new episode of Your Next Stop recorded live on Fireside with host Juliet Hahn featuring SUGARED + BRONZED Founder Courtney Claghorn.

"Be focused on your business but don't be consumed in the textbook way of doing everything. A lot of people are so caught up in doing things perfectly instead of the core business." - Courtney Claghorn

From a young age, Courtney Claghorn always felt her best with a tan. Ironically, she was the only Italian family member who didn't tan easily! While she used to find this frustrating, she later realized it was a blessing not to have spent her younger years baking in the sun. For her, a faux glow was the way to go.

Before opening the OG Santa Monica salon, Courtney attended the University of Colorado at Boulder, where she met boyfriend and Co-Founder, Sam Offit. Shortly after graduation, they landed in Santa Monica.

When Courtney found herself overpaying for spray tans at underwhelming locations, Sam encouraged her to find a better solution — and SUGARED + BRONZED was born! Word spread quickly. The growing client base encouraged Courtney to spread her wings from her short-lived corporate life and refocus her energy toward growing her business full-time. She soon became a 4th generation female entrepreneur, so perhaps her Italian half gave her good genes after all!

So why sugaring and bronzing? Concocting the perfect recipe for her business, Courtney, a longtime skincare fanatic, decided to add a little sugar to her sunless tanning idea. While sugaring has ancient Egyptian roots, it felt relevant to the modern world as a natural, eco-friendly way to remove hair. While developing her business, Courtney quickly realized that sugaring was not only the new waxing but also the perfect complement to a spray tan. Both services were often relegated to the bottom of long spa menus when in actuality, both techniques deserved finesse and attention for clients to receive consistent and optimal results.

Courtney's vision brought the two popular services side by side. SUGARED + BRONZED quickly became a uniquely synergetic space for those seeking a little extra pep in their step. No matter the occasion, SUGARED + BRONZED promises that you'll leave with immaculately smooth skin and a natural faux glow. We believe that "flawless" is a feeling and we're just a vehicle to help you get there.

"I've always thought if I started a business, it would be a product that can help people." - Leeanna Gantt

Leeanna is the founder and inventor of TookTake dosage reminder labels. She didn't just come up with TookTake because she wanted to start a company and thought it was a good idea that might help a few people, it was more than that.

In 2017, a few weeks after Leeanna's daughter was accepted to the college of her dreams and three days after Christmas, she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

2018 started with her facing one solid year of treatment starting with 6 rounds of chemotherapy, followed by another 7 months of infusions, along with surgery, and 31 radiation treatments.

Leeanna's husband and daughter were there to make sure that she ate as best as she could and took all the medications that the doctors and nurses asked her to. In her case, all of the medications she had were to try to help with the side effects of treatments. She had medication that she needed to take for 4 days after treatment, one once a day and one twice a day to minimize bone pain, had other pain medication, anti-nausea medication, cough medicine, heartburn medicine, and many, many lotions and creams for rashes and reactions. They were all on different schedules, it was ridiculous!

So Leeanna started to make little labels out of sticky notes to remind her to take medications. There were different colors for different schedules: daily, twice a day and hourly. Eventually, it became a really easy-to-use system that made things easier for everyone.

One day, Leeanna grabbed her laptop and looked online for a pre-made version of something like what she had been making and she couldn't find anything like it, nothing even close. Just old-fashioned plastic pillboxes in various shapes or really complicated apps and electronic devices which didn't work for what she had going on.

Leeanna decided that these labels had helped her so much that they should be available to everyone. That's when TookTake was created.

Prior to TookTake, she helped lead the 501c3 charity, Rainbow Pack, which provided backpacks full of homework supplies to economically disadvantaged elementary school students in The Los Angeles Unified School District. Going back a bit further, Leeanna created the award-winning community art and craft studio, Tinker, which brought people together to create and make in an inspiring and judgement-free space. All of this was preceded by a celebrated career as a creative director at several notable advertising agencies where she created award-winning work for clients such as Lexus, Wells Fargo, Acura, Yonex Tennis, and Hartford Insurance. Above all, she is most proud of her family.
