The Best (and Worst) Decisions I’ve Made Running My Business
It’s hard to believe I’ve been running a business for 10 years. Some days I still feel like a total rookie (what’s a form 1099 again?), and then I have a coffee chat with a recent college grad or speak on a panel at Create & Cultivate, and realize that I’ve learned quite a bit […]

What to Wear to a Morning Meeting at Juice Society
*photos by kristen kilpatrick Is anyone else prematurely shopping for hot weather clothes?

It’s […]
